The car is a part of life for each third inhabitant of a big city, but the car service sometimes costs quite expensive, especially during the holidays and holidays, when we decide to take advantage of your "iron horse" for a trip to another city or just to the country. The consumption of gasoline in this case is significant and badly affects the pocket. What to do? Refuse the trip, because most of the salary went to gifts native? Of course not. We will tell you a few simple rules, which will help reduce fuel costs on long-distance travel.
Check in what condition your car
An important point is to check the air filter, since in case the filter is too dirty, the air comes several times less, which directly affects fuel consumption. But we strive to reduce the flow, right? To check, you do not need to possess special knowledge: see the filter on the light, if it does not pass, change the filter - everything is simple.
Choose the right oil
It is not necessary to closely refer to the choice of engine oil. The correct operation of the car depends on your choice and, naturally, gasoline consumption. The stronger the piston resistance is, the more energy you need your car - the fuel "flies" at the speed of light. While buying an oil, pay attention to its viscosity - it should not be too dense, otherwise the parts of the motor will have to work in the enhanced mode, which will require more fuel consumption.

We measure pressure
No, not at the driver, but the air pressure in the tires. As long as you did not go on the road, check the pressure that can allow three tenth bar. The higher the pressure, the greater the load it has on the suspension, which will also require more fuel consumption, with which we are trying to fight. However, the quality of movement is high pressure, as a rule, is not reflected.
