Things You'll Need

Follow these few simple steps

Steps

1

Dont Drive fast inside city limit!!!! Dont try to accelerate between two red lights. Did you know while you are sitting at a red light, you are getting 0mpg? If you see the red light from a distance dont rush to it, ease off the accelerator and coast up to lights. You can save lot of fuel by doing this since there are lot of red lights inside the city limits. There is no reason to be pressing on the accelerator wasting gas when the light is going to turn. The longer you are sitting still, the worse gas mileage you are going to get.

2

Remove unnecessary weight. Take all of that junk out of your car that you don't use. Take out the gym bag you probably never use anyway. Put your clothes in your closet where they belong. Clean out your glove box. Added weight is a killer when it comes to gas mileage. Get rid of any excess weight you can!!!!!

3

If you are travelling out of town try to maintain the speed at bikes 55 to 70 Kmph and 70 to 85 kmph for cars as long as possible. Maintaining constant optimum speed increase the mileage of your vehicle. You can even maintain speed in city if your vehicle will let you. You'd be surprised how much fuel you save by not slamming on your accelerator every time you get an free space to ride inside city. It's much safer too.

4

Don't have your vehicle running in idle for more than 30 second.
