The Truth About Fuel Economy

Fuel economy is rapidly becoming a serious need for all of us. As gas prices soar we are quickly realizing that our money doesn't stretch as much as it used to. Being economical is imperative at the moment, but it isn't as hard as it sounds. Fuel economy simply requires a little common sense.

Maintain your Car

This is important if you want your car to run efficiently. Consult a mechanic and make sure your engine is tuned. Have serious problems addressed immediately. Something as simple as a faulty oxygen censor can affect your mileage by up to 40%.

Air Filters

Be sure to check your air filters regularly. A clogged air filter can decrease your mileage by nearly 10%.

Slow down

Maintaining the speed limit will help your car burn fuel efficiently. Needlessly traveling over 60 mph will waste fuel and cost you at the pumps.

At the Pump

Remember to fill the tank on the lowest setting. That trigger usually has 3 settings, squeezed gently and you will get more fuel.

All of these tips will ensure that you get the most out of the gas that you pay for. Unfortunately, they cannot ensure that the price of gas goes down. True fuel economy would be in finding a source of fuel that is cheap and easily accessible.

Fuel economy at its best. Water as fuel.

Using HHO gas, it is now possible to run your car on both gasoline and water. This increased your mileage by 50-60%. Economically, you would be cutting your gas prices in half.

Normally this conversion would cost thousands of dollars and would involve a mechanics shop. Much like buying a hybrid car, the conversion would be an investment in the hopes of saving in the long run. In the case of HHO gas, the conversion is both simple and inexpensive.

With gas prices soaring, fuel economy is going to become a big issue worldwide, and although the technology to run cars on 100% water is still being fine-tuned, the ability to even burn water for half of our mileage is going to be a welcome technology to the world.
