Ways of increasing car mileage

Making list of items needed, and moving according to the schedule to purchase the items directly affects or reduces the fuel consuming capacity of the car. Load is the second main reason that why the fuel consumption increases in the car. The greater the load in the car the lesser would be the mileage provided by the car. Fuel tank of the car should always be filled with the fuel to up to two-third. This help in providing the engine with steady supply of fuel and there by reducing the harmful effects of overloading. Further looking speed is the other major drawback responsible for poor car mileage. When the speed of the vehicle is high a greater amount of energy is required to propel the vehicle through-out the winds around. Using cruise control or maintaining a constant speed of the car also helps in reducing the higher fuel consumption.

Using a car at low acceleration helps in maintaining low revolutions per minute in the car. Using brakes again and again reduces the energy burned through engine and there by reduces the fuel consuming capacity of the vehicle. A highway should be the first preference instead of the streets of the city. Properly air filled and inflated tires also reduces thefuel consumption of the car. Air filter of the car engine also effects the fuel economy of the car. Dirt in the filter can cause blogging in the engine of the car. A engine running while the vehicle is not moving wastes even more power of then moving the vehicle slowly until it gets warm-up. Running the AC when it is really not required or running it when the car is at a haul or running it on the busy traffic roads - all increases thefuel consumption power of the vehicle. Two wheel driving of a vehicle uses less fuel than that of four wheel drive. More moving parts in the drive-train causes morefuel consumption of the car. If the individual drives the vehicle with a conservative approach to the vehicle, then he/she will consume less energy from the vehicle. Using a manual transmission whenever required rather than a automatic transmission also reduces the fuel consuming rate of the vehicle. Parking of the car at parking areas should be done according to the free space available, so that while taking out the car it does not becomes too hard to take the vehicle out.
