How to save heaps of money on fuel consumption
- Keep your car tuned by a qualified mechanic. Vehicles in poor running
condition use more petrol.
- Plan trips in advance to avoid unnecessary detours.
- Minimise the use of your car air conditioner.
- Try avoiding open windows when travelling at higher speeds to prevent
drag, which of course means your car will use more fuel to run at the
same speed.
- Over-inflated tyres can actually reduce your fuel efficiency, so
stick to the manufacturers recommendations.
- Try commuting to work outside of heavy peak periods. Stop-start
traffic can use much more fuel.
- Don't carry everything, including the kitchen sink, in your car. The
more weight in your car, the more fuel you use to propel it. Avoid
eating too many donuts too :)
- Do not idle your car for long periods of time when stuck in traffic.
If you are stuck in a traffic gridlock for longer than five minutes,
turn off your engine.
- Modern cars are made to run with minimal "warm up" time. Get in,
start the car, put your seat belt on, adjust your mirrors, smile, then
take off.
- Don't travel at high speeds in lower gears unless you are using the
engine/transmission to brake you.
- Try to stick to the speed limit.
- Don't accelerate like an F1 driver from the traffic lights. Its not a
race, and smooth, tempered acceleration from a standing start will give
you a huge economy boost.
- Most cars are built to run on regular unleaded, or low octane fuels.
Check your owners manual or consult a qualified mechanic.
- Do not rev your engine when turning your vehicle off. This is not
only bad for fuel economy, it's not good for your engine.
- Car pooling with workmates can save a lot on fuel. It's not as
convenient as driving your own car, but it will save you HEAPS on
commuting fuel use.
- Try avoiding the car altogether when possible - go for a walk, use a
push bike, or even jog to your destination. Your body and your wallet
will thank you.
- In Australia, the fuel companies like to screw with our heads and
put the fuel prices up and down when it suits them. Avoid higher priced
days, and fill up on the lower priced days. NEVER fuel up just before
long weekends, or standard holiday periods. They'll get you very time!
- When purchasing a new car (or used car), always consider the fuel
consumption specs.
