SIMPLE WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR GAS MILEAGE 
If your vehicle isn’t properly tuned up and maintained, it could affect your gas mileage.  That’s why 
it is so important to rely on the Specialists at our dealership.  We know your vehicle better than anyone.
 
Use the recommended motor oil grade.  Using the manufacturer’s recommended grade of Mopar motor oil can 
improve gas mileage by 1 – 2 %.  Ask for Mopar motor oil labeled “Energy Conserving” to be sure it contains 
friction-reducing additives.
Check and replace air filters.  Replacing a clogged air filter with a new Mopar air filter can improve gas mileage by 
as much as 10%.
Replace that dirty fuel filter.  Dirty fuel filters reduce economy by as much as 7%.
Keep the engine tuned.  Fixing a vehicle that is noticeably out of tune can improve gas mileage by an average of 4%.  
Fixing a serious maintenance problem, such as a faulty oxygen sensor, can improve gas mileage by as much as 40%.
Have your fuel injectors serviced and cleaned for optimal performance.  Clean injectors can increase fuel 
economy by as much as 12%.
Keep the tires properly inflated.  Underinflated tires can lower gas mileage by 0.4% for every 1 psi (pounds per 
square inch) drop in pressure of all four tires.
Use Nitrogen in your tires.  Nitrogen in tires is becoming a very popular replacement for air, and for good reason. 
With proper inflation procedures and adequate purity nitrogen can provide amazing benefits. Converting to nitrogen in 
tires can improve your fuel economy by up to 10% and increase your tire life by 30% or more while dramatically 
increasing the safety of your vehicle.

                                                            TUNE UP YOUR DRIVING HABITS 
You can save fuel and improve gas mileage by adopting efficient driving habits.  It’s easy to do and can 
lead to substantial savings.
 
Avoid aggressive driving.  Speeding, rapid acceleration and rapid braking can lower your gas mileage by 33% at 
highway speeds and by 5% around town.
Observe the speed limit.  Though every vehicle reaches its optimal fuel economy at a different range of speeds, gas 
mileage usually decreases rapidly at speeds above 60 mph.  As a rule of thumb, you can assume that each 5mph you 
drive over 60 mph is like paying an additional 20 cents per gallon for gas.
Optimize your travel and consolidate trips.  Combine multiple trips into one.  Establish a route for the shortest 
distance.
Purchase your gas on Wednesdays.  Statistics show that prices usually change on Thursdays.  Also, buy gas before 
holidays.
Use a fuel credit card.  Most gas companies give a few cents per gallon discount if you use their credit card.
Make sure you tighten your gas cap fully.  Improperly sealed gas caps allow 147 million gallons of fuel to vaporize 
every year in the U.S. alone.  Loose gas caps also cause check engine lights to come on.
Be wary of gas saving products.  Most products cost you in the long run.
Reduce excess vehicle weight.  Every extra 100 pounds of stuff in your vehicle can reduce gas mileage by up to 2%.  
If you drive a smaller vehicle, extra weight could affect your mileage even more.
Avoid excessive idling.  When you idle, you get 0 miles per gallon.  And ignore the misconception: It doesn’t take more 
gas to restart the engine than you would save from turning off the engine.
Stick with the specialists for all your maintenance needs, and we’ll help keep your vehicle running as fuel 
efficiently as possible.
 
When should a tire be replaced?
A tire should be replaced when the tread is worn out or the tire has been damaged.
To check your tread wear you can use the penny trick.  Place a penny in the most shallow tread groove with
Lincoln's head down.  If you can see the top of his head, the tire needs to be replaced.
