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.
