For every 1 PSI under-inflated your tires are you loose 0.4% gas mileage. If your tires are 5 pounds under-inflated, your loosing 2% of your gas mileage. 4. Maintain a steady speed. Accelerating uses more gas than maintaining your current speed, and every time you brake, you’re wasting the momentum you have burned gas to build up. By anticipating traffic and avoiding constant acceleration and deceleration, especially in stop and go traffic you can significantly reduce gas consumption and increase the life of your car. 3. Get a tune up. Regular maintenance will help your care run better, last longer, and can improve your gas mileage up to 25%. 2. Use the octane level your vehicle manufacture recommends.
