Saving gas?

Author: admin

Would it save me gas if i put my 1993 manual jeep cherokee in neutral while driving? Which will save me more gas. Putting the windows up while using the AC while going 60 or more MPH or putting the windows down while going 60 or more MPH? I'm also wondering, how much MPG does my jeep consume. thanks

#1 - that is like getting towed. It will slowly destroy your tranny.

#2 - keeping contant engine load /speed is the ideal way to get best MPG. So putting the automobile in neutral and then accelerating again WASTE more energy.

There are few thing you can do to save (or maximize) gas MPG. First get a tune-up.

(1) spark plugs

(2) spark plug wires

(3) distributors, coil, rotors (if you’ve them).

(4) new air filter

(5) PCV

(6) correct tire pressure

(7) clear the trunk of useless heavy items

(8) spray clean MAF sensor.

Forget all those “SAVE GAS” scams. This was on NBC morning Television show. The difference is as much as 38% (their claim). There are very simple rules to save gas:

(1) drive slow - not too much past 55

(2) accelerate slowly

(3) don't brake unnecessarily

(4) use cruise control - whenever it is safe to do so.

Don't coast - it is NOT safe (to coast in Nuetral) and it does NOT save gas. It only saves gas, if you’re planning to slow down (exiting, tolls, traffic). Coasting then accelerating again is LESS efficient than just cruising.

The above really works. Using those easy rules I was able to drive from Boston to NYC (210.5 miles) on just 5.112 gallon (94 Civic). That's 41 MPG (94 Civic 187K miles). Actually I was speeding at 72 MPH so I could do even better at 55.

WOW !!

Good Luck….
