Keeping your engine in tune and making sure your tires are properly inflated and balanced is a simple way to maintain your vehicle’s best possible fuel economy. Even when your engine is slightly out of tune, it can decrease fuel efficiency by 4%. Improperly inflated tires may decrease fuel efficiency by up to 3% due to rolling resistance. Regular maintenance on your car will make it safer, save fuel, and make the engine last longer and run more reliably. For more information on the benefits of properly maintaining your vehicle, see:
