How To Maximize Fuel Efficiency Of A Car

Now, we are

burning more fuel

on road than we

should; with a basic

knowledge we can

maintain good fuel

efficiency and can

save a lot fuel.

Easy Ways To Maintain Maximum

Fuel Efficiency-

Tire Pressure

City-Stop &

Go

Efficient

Speed

Air Filter

Wheel

alignment &

balancing

Aerodynamic

s

Fuel Injectors

Oxygen

Sensors

PCV Valve

Spark Plugs

Tire Pressure

In most cases energy is wasted due to inflated tires.

Check the tire pressure every weather or season change.

Check car’s manual or recommended tire pressure mentioned in driver side door panel.

City- Stop & Go

Driving in traffic destroy vehicle’s

efficiency

Always avoid the slow drive areas for better performance of car.

Sometimes slow driving area creates problem for the car.

Efficient Speed In Highway

In highways, most vehicles can be driven without any disturbance than other roads and that gives a better fuel efficiency.

Every vehicle has a specific speed range for better fuel efficiency and it will easily be achieved in highways.

Air Filter

Air filter changing or cleaning is

the easy way to ensure a vehicle

is running in top efficiency.

There are some high

performance air filters that

increase air flow resulting in

more power and fuel efficiency.

Oxygen Sensors

Uses: The sensor reads the amount of oxygen

flowing out of the engine through exhaust

pipe. As per reading, it will inform for more

or less fuel for better performance.

This sensor should be replaced when it starts

to give false information.

Fuel Injectors

Fuel injectors spray fuel into engine, sometimes

they get clogged with slit so it can reduce the performance of car.

When getting this type of problem, immediately clean the injectors in any service center

or replace if required.

Aerodynamics

Closing the windows without turning on A/C

can give better performance.

Remove any type of roof racks and cargo

boxes because they provide tons of

aerodynamic drag.

Wheel Alignment & Balancing

An imbalanced tire starts shaking

at a specific speed and

disturbs the overall driving of

the vehicle.

When getting problem with

wheel, immediately do the wheel

alignment in a service center.

PCV Valve

This valve takes whatever gases that

were not burned inside of the engine

and sends it back to be burned again.

If this valve is not working properly,

gas unused inside the engine would

be lost and eventually find its way

into the atmosphere.

Spark Plugs

Spark plug job is to create the spark that

ignites the air fuel mixture in engine.

When a new spark plug is installed,

ignites gases faster and more efficiently.

Regular maintenance in proper

time would give a better

performance of the car.
