Saving Money On Gasoline For Your Automobile, Personal Finance : iPedia

The gas that we fill our tanks with every week adds up to be quite an expensive bill over the months and years. Thirty dollars a week in gas adds up to over $1500 a year.

That's $1500 additional dollars needed just top drive something you already own (or making payments on).

Small changes in your driving habits can save you hundreds every year. It's really not as difficult to increase your fuel mileage as you might think.

Keep track of your mileage for one week (7 days) BEFORE you start implementing these gas saving tips. The following week, start practicing these tips and keep track of the mileage for another seven days.

Nothing elaborate. Use the re-setable odometer found in most vehicles or simply use a post-it note in your car. You might find yourself saving $5-$10 a week which works out to $260-$520 annually!

Here are ten short gas saving tips that you can start using today. Most of these tips can be immediately put into use and cost absolutely nothing! What can be better than saving money for FREE?

- Check Tires RegularlyKeep tires properly inflated to avoid premature wear and mileage loss. Under inflated tires can waste 5%-10% more fuel than needed.

- Maintain Car MomentumIf possible, scan the road ahead to anticipate when slowing will occur. Maintaining even a 'crawl' will save you gallons as opposed to constantly stopping and going.

- Stop 'n Go TrafficUsing the car air conditioning unit during heavy traffic can really 'burn' up gas quickly. If it's bearable, try to keep the windows or sunroof open for fresh air.

- Remove Unnecessary WeightIf possible, remove car racks and any items of considerable weight. You'd be surprised at what an extra 50-100lbs can do to your gasoline consumption rate.

- Keep Filters/Converters CleanThis can save you and your engine a lot of extra work. Most filters cost between $3-$15 and can be replaced without much work - especially the air filter.

- Higher Octane GasDo not benefit most cars. Only use the higher octane if your engine is starting to 'ping' (engine knock)

- Cruise ControlMaintain an exact speed allowing for better fuel consumption. Effective on open highways.

- On HighwaysIf possible, try to keep windows and sunroofs closed especially at high speeds. Use the built in ventilation system for fresh air for optimum aerodynamics.

- PickUp OwnersConsider a 'soft-net' type gate replacement to eliminate the "drag chute" effect. Extremely effective on freeways/highways.

An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique number that devices use in order to identify and communicate with each other on a computer network utilizing the Internet Protocol standard (IP). Any participating network device — including routers, computers, time-servers, printers, Internet fax machines, and some telephones — must have its own unique address. An IP address can also be thought of as the equivalent of a street address or a phone number (compare: VoIP) for a computer or other network device on the internet.
