You want to know how to get the best gas mileage while driving your car? While our gasoline prices increase daily some parts of Europe and Great Britain pay twice as much for their petrol. You may not be able to go out and buy that latest 20,000 dollar electric hybrid. You need to make sure that you keep up on your vehicles maintenance and should you notice a noticeable miles per gallon decrease you should schedule your vehicles for an engine tune up or engine diagnostics with your automotive mechanic. Most newer vehicles do not require a tune up until you reach 100,000 miles.

You may not recall your last tune up and if you bought a used vehicle there are often no service records. Consider buying a used car from a reputable dealer or used car lot and often maintenance check and a tune up has been done. Used car dealers may not always do a full tune up prior to selling a used car if the vehicle is running well. If you have your doubts ask and if the motor is running a little rough then see if the will do a maintenance check and tune up free prior to buying that used car for sale.

Your best gas mileage can be realized on your car when you know you engine is serviced regularly, engine diagnostics check out and a tune up is up to date. Things a diagnostic may find is a faulty oxygen sensor and this can rob you of a 40% increase in gas mileage. This is usually the number one item to check for when you mileage decreases substantially and a check engine like comes on. Though in some cases a light may not alert you to this oxygen sensor failure.

Regular maintenance and regular oil changes based on your vehicles owners manual can help you maintain good gas mileage. When you replace a dirty oil and oil filter you can see an increase in gas mileage up to 2%. That beats driving around town looking to save 5 cents a gallon! Did you know if you replace a dirty air filter you can be increasing gas mileage up to 10%. If you remove extra weight out of you car this will also help improve fuel economy. If you are sick and tired of filling your gas tank and wasting gas consider downsizing to a more fuel efficient used car.

An electric hybrid may be out of the question due to costs but what else can you do if you have already followed you owners manuals schedule? You may already be using gasoline additives or you may have already found a gas saving device that is not a scam. Fuel additives can keep your engine and fuel injectors clean optimizing gas mileage. The sad truth is many fuel savings devices do not work or work as claimed but a few do and these age gaining popularity on the Internet and in forums and are often of home built origins.

One such device that is gaining in notoriety online an in the news is a HHO gas generator. HHO gas can be generated from an HHO cell and mixed with your current gas or diesel just before you intake manifold giving you a noticeable increase in gas mileage. A HHO fuel cell or HHO car kit can be constructed at home from plans with many common items. A HHO cell is small enough to fit under the hood of most cars and trucks and if more than one cell may be needed it is not often and issue it is not uncommon to see 2 to 6 cells. This technology is still considered experimental and is sometimes referred to as hydrogen on demand. HHO gas car kits are helping people just like you improve gas mileage up to 40% and in some cases more. Some people have scoffed at the introduction of HHO or browns gas as a supplement but many forget the vehicles with propane conversion kits that were introduced in the past that still work well. Other benefits are improved performance and emissions and quieter smoother running engine.
