I don’t know if this post is timely since fuel priced did go down almost 10 pesos for the past month.  I think its still nice to continue saving up and practice these tips not just to save on fuel, but to cut down on harmful auto emissions.

  1. Buy gas during the coolest time of the day, that will be during early mornings or during late evening.  Gasoline is denser when its cold.
  2. As much as you want to save by opting not to use the aircon, opened windows during high speed causes drag, reducing mileage by 10%
  3. Do regular tuneups to ensure best fuel economy.
  4. Unload unused stuff from your car like golf clubs, bowling balls and other equipment, the added load adds up to fuel consumption.
  5. Check tire pressure often, lower tire pressure than the required also adds up to fuel consumption.
Hope this helps.
