In today’s world, there is significant concern about both high fuel costs and environmental degradation. By taking some simple measures to improve fuel-efficiency, you can help to address both of these issues. To boost MPGs, there are some measures you can take on your own, while others can be completed at the shop. At L&S MotorWerks, we provide expert European auto maintenance in Elk Grove that can help your vehicle get more miles per gallon. Here’s a look at four tips for improving gas mileage.
Your tires play a crucial role in fuel-efficiency. Under-inflated tires create more rolling resistance, requiring the engine to work harder and consume more fuel. Regularly check and maintain the recommended tire pressure to reduce friction and improve gas mileage.
Excess weight can have a substantial impact on your vehicle's fuel economy. Remove unnecessary items from your car, especially heavy ones that can contribute to increased fuel consumption. Carrying around extra weight means the engine has to work harder to move the vehicle, ultimately reducing gas mileage. It’s best to keep your trunk clutter-free and only carry essential items, helping to optimize efficiency.
Reducing air resistance can enhance your vehicle's aerodynamics and contribute to better gas mileage. Keep windows closed at higher speeds to minimize drag, and remove roof racks or carriers when not in use. While it might seem like a small adjustment, these changes can collectively make a meaningful difference in your car's fuel-efficiency.
Completing regular vehicle maintenance is critical for optimal gas mileage. Ensure that your car is serviced according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Regular oil changes, air filter replacements, and timely tune-ups can significantly contribute to smoother engine performance, ultimately enhancing fuel efficiency.
