Gas Prices Are Killing Us! Increase Mileage Using These Tips

I don't know about you, but I am starting to get tired of $4/gallon fuel. I keep asking myself "there has got to be a way to increase mileage on my vehicle!"
After searching, searching, searcing, I compiled the best information I can find on practical ways to increase mileage - that wont cost you a ton of cash to implement.
That means, your ROI is quick, and we can finally start getting some relief from the price at the pump.

Step One - Increase Mileage with Spark Plugs 

Simple, quick, and inexpesive changes!

You have probably heard this before, but it really is true - your spark plugs CAN make a difference in your fuel consumption and increase mileage.
Changing your plugs is easy, cheap, and can result in a 3-5% increase in miles per gallon.

Best Spark Plugs

The best bang for your buck is the Bosch Platinum IR Fusion Spark Plug


This Bosch plug has 4 times the amount of platinum of normal plus, and creates an air tight fire zone to make your engine run more efficiently.

You can get great deals, free shipping, even in store pick up at local parts stores, but shopping at partsamerica.com

Step Two - Increase Mileage with a New Air Filter 

Even More Simple, Even Quicker, and Even Cheaper!

The better the air flow to your engine, the more efficient it will run. Most of you have seen your air filter as it is presented by the guys down at the oil change shop. See the dirt on it? It really does impact your fuel mileage!
But, do NOT pay the prices they charge. Air filters are amazingly easy to replace, takes about 3 minutes!

Best Air Filters

The best air filter you can buy is a K&N filter.
K&N filters are the best performing filters in keeping the air to your engine cleaner, longer.
Cleaner air means less build up in your engine, meaning less fuel consumption.

PartsAmerica has a great selection of K&N filters at very good prices. They also feature online ordering, with in-store pickup (note, this is usually cheaper than walking in and buying one!).

Increase mileage by installing a new filter every 6-9 months!

Other Great Ideas to Increase Mileage 

Spend a little more, save a little more fuel!

  1. Change your Oil Filter to a K&N filter. K&N is THE brand for all filters (air and oil). Your oil filter helps keep oil cleaner, longer - making your engine perform better and increasing mileage.

    Great prices on oil filters are again available at parts america.
    Shop partsamerica.com

  2. Check your tire inflation.
    Some reports show that under or over inflated tires can cause you to loss mileage per gallon.
    The easiest thing to do is check the manufactures recommendation, and then check your tire pressure.
    Adjust the pressure (use any free air hose at the local gas station) and inflate to proper psi.
    This will result in the tire making proper contact with the ground, reducing drag, and increasing mileage.
  3. Another great, free trick is to use your cruise control more.
    Your cruise control will limit the RPM's of your engine. It reduces the hard/constant acceleration and uses fuel more efficiently. Learn how to set it on your vehicle and you will increase 1 to 2 mpg's on most highway trips.
  4. HYPERMILING!
    I just ran across this great guide on how to increase mileage through Hypermiling. This is the first guide I have seen that explains it very clearly.
