10 Tips For Achieving Advertised Fuel Ratings For Your Car

(NC)-The amount of fuel your vehicle consumes can vary

considerably from its published ratings. If you drive with

fuel efficiency in mind, you can achieve those numbers, or

even exceed them. Here are some tips for getting there:


. Consult your owner's manual for driving and maintenance advice for optimum performance and efficiency


. Follow the manufacturer's suggested maintenance schedule


. Check fluid levels at least once a month


. Measure your tire pressure at least once a month


. Avoid speeding


. Use cruise control


. Use your air conditioning sparingly


. Remove unnecessary weight


. Take off the roof rack



. Leave the car at home or park part way to your destination


These are just some of the tools consumers can use to help

drive and maintain their vehicles in ways that will

conserve energy, preserve the environment, protect their

health and save money.
