Fuel Economy

How can you improve your gas mileage? 

There are five simple things you can do to make sure you can get the most out of the fuel in your vehicle.

1. Maintain Proper Tire Inflation.  Improve your gas mileage by around 3% by keeping your tires inflated to the proper pressure.
2. Use Recommended Grade of Oil.  Improve your gas mileage by 1-2% by using the manufacturer's recommended grade of motor oil. The Dealership will use the correct grade for your vehicle every time you come in for an oil change.
3. Keep Engine Properly Tuned.  Fixing a car that is noticeably out of tune or has failed an emissions test can improve mileage by an average of 4%. Making sure your oxygen sensor is working properly can improve mileage by as much as 40%.
4. Change Air Filter. Replacing a clogged air filter improves your gas mileage by as much as 10%.
5. Perform Regular Maintenance. Improving the fuel economy of your vehicle starts with regular maintenance at your local Dealership. Following the maintenance schedule is an easy way to optimize your vehicle’s fuel economy.
