Several maintenance habits directly boost fuel economy: keep tire pressure at the recommended level (low pressure increases resistance), replace air filters when due (a clean filter helps your engine run efficiently), maintain proper engine oil (synthetic oils reduce friction), and get regular tune-ups. Excess weight and aggressive driving also drain the tank faster.

Small maintenance investments pay for themselves in fuel savings. A well-maintained engine is more efficient, cleaner, and lasts longer.
