How can Sultzes Automotive keep my car “green”?
Keeping your car “green” is good for the enviornment and your pocketbook. With gas prices going higher and higher, we all need to get bang for our gas bucks. There are a number of easy things to maximize your mileage. -Proper tire pressure and alignment. Proper pressure, rolling resistance and alignment makes sure that the tires are not “scrubbing” due to misalignment. -Check air filter and replace as needed. -Properly running and no “Check Engine” or Malfunction Indicator Light(aka:MIL) is illuminated. -Drive in maore conservative manner. Quick starts and stops only waste fuel. -Reduce freeway speeds. Traveling at or exceeding speed limits can waste fuel too. Slow down. Its’s that simple. -Dump the junk in the trunk. Unneeded weight takes more to push around. Take off the bicycle or luggage rack when it’s not needed. -Custome wheels or oversized/ undersized tires can have huge effect on milage. Those wide tires look good, but agian, it takes a lot of fuel to push them down the road. –
