How to Improve Your Gas Mileage

One of the easiest ways to improve gas mileage on Red Hill roads is to simply adopt better driving habits. Whether you choose to come to gradual stops or drive at consistent speeds, you’ll soon realize that little changes can make a big difference. Cut down on your gas expenses with the good driving habits listed below:

  • Drive the speed limit
  • Drive at a consistent speed
  • Accelerate gradually
  • Get rid of unnecessary weight or cargo
  • Don’t idle the car any more than necessary 

A lesser-known tip on how to improve gas mileage is to schedule routine service appointments at Hadwin-White Buick GMC, Inc.. Not adhering to your recommended maintenance schedule or skipping your service appointments entirely will make your car’s engine have to work harder. An overworked engine will inevitably lead to increased fuel consumption. If you want to optimize every drop of gas in the tank, you’ll want to take advantage of this handy maintenance advice:

  • Have your oil changed regularly
  • Have your brakes checked for drag
  • Replace the cabin air filter regularly
  • Replace the thermostat when needed
  • Replace oxygen sensors regularly
  • Replace a broken or missing spoiler
  • Make sure the wheels are aligned properly
  • Changing the air filter on a routine basis
  • Changing spark plugs regularly
  • Keep your tires inflated properly
