New Delhi. Every car driver in every corner of the world wants his car to give better mileage. All over the world, everyone is worried about the high prices of petrol and diesel. In such a situation, by improving your mileage, you can get some relief from the rising price of petrol and diesel. There are many simple steps that can be taken to improve fuel mileage.
Let’s take a look at some of these simple steps, which can be used to increase the mileage of the car.
1. Maintain Proper Tire Pressure
Maintaining proper pressure in your car tires is one of the easiest ways to improve your car’s mileage. For this it is necessary that the tires are properly filled with air. Also, instead of putting stickers on tyres, drivers manuals should be used instead or stickers on the driver’s door (door). Along with this, having a cheap tire pressure gauge in the car is also good for mileage.
2. Use the stock tire size in the car
Use the stock tire size in the car – To improve the mileage of the car, the stock tire size should be used. Car companies put such stock size tires on their cars so that customers can get good fuel economy. In such a situation, there should not be any unnecessary change in the tire size.
3. Checking Wheel Alignment
Wheel (tire) alignment testing is provided free of charge at most tire and auto shops. This test also helps in improving the mileage of the car. If the tires are rotated in a straight and vertical range, less resistance is used during the drive, which results in less fuel usage. This improves mileage.
4. Maintain Consistency in Drive Speed
Maintain Consistency in Drive Speed – Consistency at drive speed should be maintained as far as possible to reduce engine load and improve mileage. Unnecessarily adjusting the speed will not maintain consistency. This increases the load on the engine and increases fuel consumption. In such a situation, speed consistency should be maintained to improve the mileage of the car.
5. Do not drive at high speed
Driving at high speed increases the load on the engine and increases fuel consumption. In such a situation, it should be avoided, due to which the mileage of the car can be improved.
6. Change Drive Mode
The mileage can be improved by making necessary changes in the drive mode as well. For example, using the ‘Eco’ mode will improve fuel economy and reduce its consumption. This will improve mileage. Also, using the ‘Cruise Control’ mode reduces the load on the engine and improves mileage.
7. Turn off the car engine while waiting
The engine of the car should be turned off while stopping at a traffic light, in a parking place or while waiting for someone. This will avoid wastage of fuel, reduce the load on the engine as well as improve mileage.
8. Tune-Up
Proper maintenance of the car, especially the tune-up, also improves the performance of the car. Engine performance, fuel efficiency, ignition system deficiencies, if any, can be rectified with the help of a tune-up. This also helps in improving the mileage of the car.
9. Do not keep unnecessary things in the car
Due to the increased weight of the car, the load on the engine also increases and the fuel consumption also increases. In such a situation, it is important not to keep unnecessary items in the car. Items that are not needed should not be kept in the car. Also, the trunk (diggy) of the car should not be kept full. The mileage of the car also improves by not keeping unnecessary items in the car.
10. Gear Positioning
Gear positioning also plays an important role in car mileage. When the car is fast, the low gear consumes more fuel. In this case, the gear should be shifted to high gear without pulling much. If the engine doesn’t pull properly, shift gears down instead of depressing the throttle. Shifting gears at 2,000 RPM (Petrol) and 1,500 RPM (Diesel) offers a good combination of speed and economy. This also improves the mileage of the car.
