Thumbs up Tips For Saving Gas

Here are some of the tips for saving gas , its my own findings , i have tested that in the long run it would certainly save gas.

1. Brakes - Applying the brakes at the right time helps to save a good amount of Gas. You can easily gain about 15% of the lost gas.

2. Manual Shifting- It would be the wise choice to have rather than automatic, which helps in considerably in saving gas.

3. Always keep the car moving at constant speeds.

4. Shifting the gears at the right time too helps.

5. Do not over use your clutch pedal.

Even I feel before buying a car you need to go through the driving habits instead going through the car buying tips.

Saving gas mainly focuses on how u drive the car. The Oils and brakes guts should be changed timely. Avoid bad roads and stop your cars in signals and traffics.

Frequent usage of clutch should be avoided
Manual transmission is recommended.

Tune the car engine regularly to maintain steady acceleration. Hence the fuel usage will be maintained.

Clutch usage should be minimized, try turning off the engine in signals, tune the engine for a better performance.
