Save Money on Gas

Austin Davis, July 3, 2008July 6, 2008

Want better gas mileage?

I am getting bombarded with emails asking “how can I save money on gasoline”. Up till now, my responses have been pretty much the same

1. Triple check your tire pressures

2. Use the correct weight of engine oil…thinner is more economical

3. Change your air filter

4. Change your spark plugs and spark plug wires if they need it

etc. etc. etc. Pretty much the same old stuff, why, because that is basically all you can really do without buying a Toyota Prius.

I now have a new way of saving money on gas….personally I would NOT recommend this, but it seems to be working fine for this guy. Although he might want to wear the proper clothing next time!
