Engine Coolant Check
Look at the coolant level in the

Fuel Economy
The condition of your car and
your driving habits are the two
most important things that affect
the fuel mileage you get.
Vehicle Condition
Always maintain your car
according to the maintenance
schedule. This will keep it in top
operating condition.
An important part of that
maintenance is the
Periodic
Checks
(see page
112
). For
example, an underinflated tire
causes more "rolling resistance,"
which uses fuel. It also wears out
faster, so check the tire pressure
at least monthly.
In winter the buildup of snow on
your car's underside adds weight
and rolling resistance. Frequent
cleaning helps your fuel mileage
and reduces the chance of
corrosion.
Driving Habits
You can improve fuel economy
by driving moderately. Rapid
acceleration, cornering, and hard
braking use more fuel.
Always drive in the highest gear
that allows the engine to run and
accelerate smoothly.
Depending on traffic conditions,
try to maintain a constant speed.
Every time you slow down and
speed up, your car uses extra
fuel. Use the cruise control,
when appropriate, to increase
fuel economy.
A cold engine uses more fuel
than a warm engine. It is not
necessary to "warm-up" a cold
engine by letting it idle for a long
