Save fuel when driving by taking your foot of the accelerator
Filed Under Green Tips | Trackback
By doing this one simple thing I was able to get 15-20% better fuel economy and it is so easy. When approaching red traffic lights, stop signs etc simply take you foot off the accelerator earlier than you normally would and let the car slow down itself rather than accelerating further and then applying the brake as soon as you remove your foot from the accelerator. If your car has a fuel economy gauge that gives instant information about fuel being used then watch this whilst doing the above and you will see the gauge probably move close to zero when you back off.
