Turn off your AC, run in high gear, dont accelerate quickly, disable your power steering and change your avitor. I did all that and I can get up to 30 MPG out of my '68 mustang.

Run tires at their correct pressure.
Keep your foot out of the carburetor. Drive the speed limit. |

Overinflating your tires will probably increase gas mileage by reducing the rolling resistance. But, it will cause uneven tire wear and increased tire wear in the middle of the tread. Any gas savings would be offset by tire replacement.
"I've heard increasing tire pressure will improve MPH. I haven't verified if this works." BTW, I think you mean MPG. |

For improved highway mileage just slow down a bit. I get 24 (according to the car's computer) at 70-75 mph. If I drop to 60, it'll do 27. Yes, with A/C on and power steering operational. Tires to correct pressure always. They'll give you better mileage and will last longer, a lot longer.

Not completely with it this morning. As for the tires, there is usually a range of pressure such as 42-44. Also most of the times I have checked the oil change place usually has them around 35. So going up to the max of 44, might make a difference. Part of the problem with the exploding tires on the Explorer was people not checking the pressure and other shops setting the pressure too low. So if nothing else, it's just a good reminder to check your tire pressure even if it won't really improve gas milage. |

Making sure your tires are inflated properly is what they are talkjing about. I would not overinflate them, but most people's tires are soft and are never checked anyway. I have seen charts showing the difference in mileage for tractor trailers, I don't know if the difference is at great for passenger cars.
Did you ever ride in a car with one of those digital MPG read outs? My buddy's Jeep has one and you can see the dramatic difference between accelerating quickly, accelerating normally and cruising. I've never heard of people disabling power steering to increase their milege. I'm sure it would work, but do people really do that? I can't imagine bothering to do that unless it was some strange "I have to get across the desert on a gallon" scenario. |

On pickup trucks I have heard that driving with your tail gate down will improve gas milage. Does anyone know if this is true? Personally I think it looks kind of stupid to drive with the tail gate down unless you have something too long for the truck bed.
What about covers for a truck bed. The manufacturers make claims that it will improve gas milage but do they really? |

I would go for a cover to really lower viscious flow over your truck. But a tailgate up does cause alot of turbulence = drag = you gotta use more gas. |

As a side note, do not bother with "split fire" spark plugs, but do change your plugs, filters and clean your injectors/carb. Regular oil changes with proper weight oil will help as well. A better flow exhaust system will help too. Some of the aftermarket power chips can make a difference. And if you really want to get crazy, a cam. All kinds of things you can do, but is it worth the gains? |

I run my pickup's tires approximately 10 pounds over the manufacturer's recommended unloaded pressure, and have seen no abnormal tire wear. It definitely rolls better – put the transmission in neutral and it cruises for a lot further on a flat road, and it handles better, too. Unfortunately, it also takes the bumps much harder!
IMO, unless you're driving a sports car, the manufacturer's recommended tire pressures are based on what gives the best ride comfort while still maintaining adequate handling. While the average soccer mom might complain about a rougher ride if the pressure is increased, it *will* improve fuel economy somewhat. |

From a Ford web site.
Bursting Their Bubble According to design experts, the truck tailgate is designed to create a cushion of air in the bed that aerodynamic engineers called a "seperated bubble" (the real nerdy ones refer to it as "Locked Vortex Flow.") Jargon aside, this invisible bubble of air actually helps deflect the faster moving wind coming over the cab so it passes over the truck's raised tailgate, keeping drag behind the truck minimized. "Putting the tailgate in the down position tends to increase turbulence and drag of the open box," explained Jack Williams, of Ford Aero Systems Engineering. "We've seen drag increase as much as .5 to 1 percent. Flow-through, web-like fabric replacement tailgates tend to increase drag even more; we've seen increases as much as 4 to 5 percent." In a nutshell, all of that extra drag translates into worse fuel economy for the vehicle. Dr. Edward Fitzgerald, an aerodynamics expert and a jet engine designer with Boeing, added that the effect is actually magnified with speed increases, so that 1 percent increase in drag with the tailgate down as city speeds has much more adverse effects on fuel economy at 70-75 mph on the open road. |

According to many of those same experts, the best way to improve a pickup's fuel economy is to leave the tailgate up and cover the bed with a quality after market tonneau cover.
"Tonneau covers on pickup boxes reduce aerodynamic drag" said Ford's Jack Williams. "we've seen reductions of about 8 to 10 percent on the F150, which means the average fuel economy improvements for the EPA city/highway cycle(test) is about 2 percent. "The average steady-state (cruise control) fuel economy improvement at highway speeds is close to 5 percent.." Adding a tonneau could mean an improvement in fuel mileage that is the equivalent of a free gallon of gas for every 20 gallons used. |

Here's my tips. I had a car that got between 55 and 72 MPG. All of the various things that affect gas mileage were more easily noticeable.
My tips are: Properly inflate your tires. Check inside your driver's side door for the specs. You can actually go a lb or two heavier without problem. Use the proper fuel recommended by the vehicle's manufacturer. Going with a higher octane rating will only get you very small, if even noticeable, gains. Change your fluids at regularly specified intervals. However, most oils can be used longer. I recommend Amsoil as a full synthetic. Most people report going 2x-3x the recommended mileage before changing. Oil analysis that people have done on their own reflects that Amsoil is, well.. the shiznit. I will be switching to it in my new car after a good break in period. Don't drive excessively fast. For every 10mph above about 50mph, drag from wind DOUBLES. That means at 80mph, drag is exponentially higher than at 50mph, and you WILL burn more gas. The only things that offset this a little are the aerodynamic efficiency and mass (weight) of your vehicle. |

Another way to say gasoline, is to start and stop slowly. When you accelerate, press on the accelerator as if you were stepping on an egg, and of course if you can see that you are coming to a red light take your foot off the gas and coast up to the stop light. And of course try to get into the highest gear whenever possible.

Quoted: Sell your gass guzzler and get something with good milage. Some fo the new VW Turbo Diesels get 50MPG. That or just move to a state witth lower gas prices. Yes, this is so true. 48 MPG @ 75MPH with AC on. The other tricks are sticking to stock tire widths, running higher tire pressures IAW the tire's instructions, not the car's. Ride will suffer but the effects are twofold. First rolling resistance is reduced but also a slight overdrive is effected. You will see little in observed mileage from the latter due to odometer obscuring but you will still save in real terms. Getting down to really tiny things, a good car was to remove bugs is worth a few tenths. Not measurable but every bit helps. Running the PROPER oil. Many people think the lighter oils do not lubricate as well but if you have oil pressure, you have ample lubrication. No oil pressure is a problem but new cars have tighter bearings and need less viscosity to achieve correct pressure. Proper grades of gasoline. If you car isn't pinging, you might be wasting money and octane. Again, RTFM. Putting 93 octane in a 1992 Chevy 350 V8 truck is probably a waste. Weight is only an issue on city driving unless you have so much junk in the trunk the car is riding bow high. Dragging the tail will definitely cut mileage. Plan well. Do not try to close a gap only to have to hit the brakes. You are paying double, once for the gas and second for brake pads. Drive at night. You need less AC. Jackrabbit starts can waste gas but accelerating too slowly also is wasteful. How? With modern cars, the fuel-air mix is tightly controlled, even during a 90% throttle acceleration. Accelerating slowly makes the engine run at lower manifold pressures and reduces the volumetric efficiency. This reduction in the actual compression pressure reduced engine efficiency and can hurt economy. Back in the carburator days, the opposit was true as these primitive mechanical proportioners ran rich at high throttle positions to protect the engine. |

I would suggest that you try to drive as smoothly as possible. Making erratic moves in both acceleration and steering cut down on MPG. As to the statement on running with the tailgate up, it works on my truck. I though BS too when I read that in the manual. I ran the truck down the highway with the tailgate up and made the same trip with it down. I got better milage with it up. Makes no sense to me what so ever. I have a club cab F150 with the short box.

When at the filling station, when the pump kicks off automatically, do not top off the gasoline.
Also, before putting the nozzle back on the pump, shut off the pump switch with your hand, then squeeze the pump again to open it up. Lift up the hose as you squeeze the pump. This will let whatever gasoline is left in the hose drain into your car. Also, fill up in the early morning. Gasoline, like air will expand and contract with temperature. Since gas is sold by the gallon, it's better to buy cold gasoline than warm gasoline because you'll get more gas per gallon. -Nick Viejo. |
