There are many ways you can get more out of your fuel. Getting frequent synthetic oil changes and following these tips will help your piggy bank.

Reducing Your Fuel Expenses in Fayetteville, NC

Looking for the cheapest gas station and using gasoline additives is not enough to help you save fuel. There are many things you can try that will surely reduce your gas expenses in Fayetteville, NC. Huff Oil Group has complied a few pointers to help you save some cash.

Drive Smartly

Angry driving can be costly to your gas tank. Be smart about it and travel at a constant speed. If you have to get somewhere fast, leave earlier. Don’t push the accelerator down too far since this burns more fuel. If you have to run some errands, try to do them all on a single trip. Check out these tips to save fuel while driving.

Change Your Oil

A well- lubricated engine works smoothly and needs less energy to function. Keep up with your scheduled oil change intervals, or, even better, increase them by switching to AMSOIL Synthetic Oil. There are many great benefits in getting a synthetic oil change, among them you’ll find an improvement in your gas mileage. A low viscosity oil like AMSOIL's Signature Series 0W-20 Synthetic Motor Oil helps reduce the oil pump’s effort. A synthetic oil change can improve fuel efficiency by up to four percent and help you save money. Synthetic oil provides superior lubrication because it’s completely free of the contaminants found in conventional oil. Sure, the price may be steeper, but its results are well worth the cost. Just don’t expect to immediately see the fuel savings, all good things take time. Be sure to replace the oil filter so your new oil doesn’t get contaminated.

Check Your Tire Pressure

Low tire pressure makes the car use more fuel to be able to roll down the road. Check the air pressure when the tires are cold and check your owner’s manual or the sticker on the driver’s door to know the recommended pressure amount. You can even set the pressure a little bit higher for better fuel economy.

Close the Windows

If you’re one of those people who enjoy feeling the air on their skin as they drive, you might be burning more fuel. It’s not such a problem if you’re driving in town, but it becomes one when you’re on the road at a higher speed. The air at high speeds causes drag, which makes the car work harder. Stick to the A/C on super hot days.

Turn Off the Air Conditioner

Yes, we just told you to turn on the air conditioner on hot days, but don’t do it if you don’t really need it. You probably use it during the winter to keep the passengers warm and to stop the windows from fogging up. Still, avoid using it when the weather is tolerable.

Plan Your Strategy When Pumping Gas

Planning your trips to the gas station can help you save some more on fuel.

• Always fill up your tank early in the morning or at night when the fuel is cooler. The heat makes the gas expand, which means you’ll be getting less fuel once it cools down and contracts.
• Avoid filling up the tank after the gas station has just received new gas. That fuel will probably be hotter, meaning it will have expanded. You’d be paying more for less.
• Fill up your tank on Wednesday or Thursday before 10 AM. In anticipation of weekend travelling, gas prices rise on Thursdays and they don’t drop until Monday.
• High temperatures not only make the fuel expand, they also turn some of that gas into vapor. If your gas cap is broken or not closed tightly, those vapors escape your tank before getting a chance to condense back into fuel.
