Answer:
There are four things you can do right away to save on your fuel cost.
- Fuel System:
If you smell gas you should have it checked right away for a leak. Not only are you wasting gas you are also endangering your life. The fuel transfers from the tank through a fuel filter for cleaning. It is best to replace your cars fuel filter every two years or 24,000 miles. And have your lines and fuel injectors checked. Air is also need to burn the fuel. So if your air filter is dirty you are wasting fuel. It should be checked or changed every time you change oil.
- Tires:
Proper tire inflation can improve gas mileage by more than 3% when maintained regularly. You will be surprised at the difference that makes in a year not only in savings of fuel cost but in tire replacement cost.
- Driver:
Of course the main source for fuel economy is the driver. Slow down on the open road and don't start off like you see a checker flag when the traffic light changes.
