For you gas savers out their looking to save money on fuel, here are a few myths that might save you some time in your search for better fuel economy.
From CNN Money
- Fill your tank in the morning - Gas temperature varies little throughout the day and filling up in the morning will probably not result in much benefit.
- Change your air filter - Modern cars adjust for this automatically when a filter gets clogged.
- Use Premium Fuel - May result in higher peak horsepower but not better gas mileage.
- Pump up your tires - Keeping them optimally inflated will add to fuel economy, but don't overinflate.
- A/C - Will reduce mpg by 1 mile per gallon on average. But rolling the windows down at high speeds will increase drag and lower your fuel economy even more.
- Additives - Don't do it.
