Tire Pressure

It is often said that the more inflated your tires are, the less gasoline you spend. Although, they do contribute moderately to the overall gas mileage of the vehicle, tire pressure is mainly a safety issue. Overinflated tires are more prone to blow-outs at higher speeds.

Air Conditioner

Everyone knows that turning off the A/C and rolling down the windows saves on gas. Well, it is partially true. While A/C compressor gets the power it needs from the engine, the effects of it on gas mileage seems to be minimal at highway speeds because when you roll down the windows the gas saving benefits are cancelled out from the drag created at higher speeds. In short, roll down the windows around town and use the A/C on the highway.

Idling

Many believe that by turning on and off the engine, they will be spending more gas; therefore, they keep their cars idling for long periods of time. Just as by turning off a light bulb you save electricity, by turning off the engine, you save gas. And your car only needs very little amount of gas to start. So, should you turn it off or let it idle? Use your judgment. If you are stopping to load and unload passengers, keep it idling, and if you are stopping for more than a minute or two, turn it off.

High Octane Gas

It's been suggested that by using high octane gas, you are more likely to increase your gas mileage. Contrary to this misconception, unless specified by the manufacturer, you do not need to use higher octane gas in your vehicles. The money to be saved on gas mileage using a higher octane gas is often offset by the difference of the price per gallon over time. Whether, the effectiveness of these ideas on gas mileage is disputable, you will soon find out that they do offer some secondary benefits such as; increased safety, lower repair bills , etc. However, the most basic requirement for increasing gas mileage begins with your driving behavior. By modifying your driving habits, you will then immediately begin seeing increased mileage on a daily basis.

Fractional Hydrogen

Bermingham University Study

Demonstrated the advantages of fractional addition of hydrogen to internal combustion engines yielded benefits in improved combustion stability and reduced nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbon emissions.

University of Cassino HYPOTHESIS Conference agreed.

Relatively fractional amounts of hydrogen can dramatically increase horsepower and reduce exhaust emissions.
