5 Tips To Get The Most For Your Money At The Gas Pump


1. Use the lowest octane gasoline possible. Buy the lowest grade or octane of gasoline that is appropriate for your car. If your car doesn't require premium gasoline, don't use it.  The more expense high-octane fuel will not increase your car's fuel economy or performance.

2. When you fill up, don't top off. Additional gas will just end up seeping out. There's no point in paying for gas that you will never get to burn anyway. Stop filling up when the gas pump turns off.

3. Be sure that the gas cap is tight. If your gas cap isn't tight, gas will evaporate from your car's gas tank. So the next time you fill up, be sure to tighten up that gas cap firmly.

4. Keep your car in the shade. The blazing summer sun can eat up fuel from your gas tank. Whenever possible, park your car under a tree, in a garage or in the shade of a building.  Also use a quality windshield shade, which will help to block sunlight and keep your car cooler.

5. Keep your tires properly inflated. Underinflated tires wear down faster and decrease your car's gas mileage. Your engine has to work harder when the tires have low pressure.
