Worried about your car mileage? Check out

Driving habits and few car maintenance tips can help you increase mileage. They are basic ones if you can remember it.

1. Proper usage of gear and throttle. More you change gear, more fuel will be consumed. Try to drive more on top gear. That is why we get good mileage on highways.

2. Properly inflated tires can reduce fuel consumption by up to 3%. Your tires also lose about 1 PSI per month, and when the tires are cold (e.g., in the winter), their pressure will decrease due to the thermal contraction of the air. It is recommended to check tires at least monthly, preferably weekly.

3. Don’t run the AC at a stretch. Alternate using AC and just the blower.

4. Whenever buying petrol, always make the tank full. This increases the efficiency of engine. Running on reserve most often puts pressure on engine.

5. Most of the petrol pumps have tampered meters. So, keep changing the petrol pump to see where you get better mileage, and then stick to it.
6. A properly tuned engine maximizes power and can greatly enhance fuel efficiency.

7. Check the condition of engine air filter. A dirty filter will reduce fuel economy, or make the engine stall when idling.

If you find any problem with mileage, you can go to nearest car service station in your area.
