Save Money at the pump


Wow! Can I really cheat and save money when I buy gas or fuel? Yes you can, and in a legal way.
There is a difference in saving money and stealing, when I say cheat, I mean in a good way, I simply mean shop smart.



Using the right credit card, if your car can use regular gas why use premium, off brand gas stations offer the same gas as do the brand name fuel stations.

Good Ideas? Check it out.

* Use a universal credit card, that will give you money back when you purchase fuel
* Use a off brand gas station
* If your user manual says you can use regular gas, then use regular gas, instead of the more expensive fuel

* Change the air filter regularly. A dirty filter can lower gas mileage.

* Maintain the recommended level of air pressure in the tires. Drivers
can lose two percent of fuel economy for every pound of pressure under
the recommended pounds per square inch.

* Drive at 55 mph. Tests have shown that a car driven at 65 mph will use
17 % more fuel than one driven at 55 mph.

* Fill up early in the morning. The afternoon sun can heat and expand the
gas in the station's fuel tank so drivers get less for their money.
