So, from your friends at EVS Auto Group, here are five ways to improve your fuel economy.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Five Ways to Improve Your Fuel Economy<\/h2>\n<h3>Replace Your Air Filter<\/h3>\n<p>Your air filter is an unsung hero in your car\u2019s performance, but that doesn\u2019t mean that you can afford to simply overlook it. A clogged or dirty air filter impedes the steady airflow that your car needs to perform at its best, so it\u2019s a good idea to change yours every 15,000 miles or so.<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-8143 \" style=\"max-width: 100%;height: 292px;padding: 10px;float: right\" src=\"https:\/\/www.buyevscars.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/582\/2017\/01\/Fuel_B153_b.jpg\" alt=\"Fuel Indicator\" width=\"442\" height=\"500\" \/>Check Your Spark Plugs<\/h3>\n<p>For your car\u2019s ignition to, well, ignite, it depends on a mixture of gas and air. The gas is provided by your spark plugs, and over time, carbon will build up and make ignition trickier than it has to be. You can either use a fuel additive to eliminate your carbon buildup, or take your car to EVS Auto Group and have us look at it. In either case, it\u2019ll help your fuel efficiency.<br \/>\n<em><strong>Read More: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evsauto.com\/blog\/how-to-stay-safe-around-semi-trucks\/\">Staying Safe Around Semi Trucks<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Check Your Tire Pressure<\/h3>\n<p>Your tires are your car\u2019s first line of defense against poor fuel economy, but what happens when they aren\u2019t filled to their proper levels? You guessed it; your car works harder than it has to, and your fuel economy dips drastically. You can find the correct tire pressure levels on a label that is inside your driver\u2019s-side doorjamb.<br \/>\n<em><strong>Read More: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evsauto.com\/blog\/get-your-car-ready-for-winter-milwaukee-wi\/\">What to Keep in your Winter Survival Kit<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Don\u2019t Drive So Fast<\/h3>\n<p>Who knew that driving like a jerk had other consequences than getting a bunch of middle fingers from other motorists? As it turns out, consistently slamming on the gas and brake pedals makes your car unhappy. It will result in far poorer fuel economy than you might get if you use a consistent mix of acceleration and deceleration.<\/p>\n<h3>Limit the Weight in Your Car<\/h3>\n<p>Some of us treat our cars like our gym locker, and we just store all sorts of unnecessary stuff in there: books, weights, etc. This stuff adds up, and it makes your car work harder than it needs to. By limiting the junk you have in your vehicle, you also limit the amount of effort it needs to exert.<br \/>\nUltimately, the gas mileage your car gets will dictate how much satisfaction you get from driving it.
