Follow These Tips To Increase Mileage Of Your Car In Summers

If you want your car to perform better in summer, then follow these suggestions. Here are some important things that will help increase the mileage.

Although the car needs proper care in every season, in summer the car engine experiences overheating. This sometimes causes drop in the car mileage. Thus, your car requires extra care in the summer season. We can improve the mileage of the car through many important tips. Let us read the important things that can increase the mileage of the car.

Tyres condition
In summer, increased friction causes internal pressure in tyres thus resulting in a blowout. To increase the mileage of the car it is very important to have the right air pressure in the car tyres. The lifespan of tyres decreases if there is more pressure than required. The condition of tyres should also be good.

Good quality engine oil
Engine oil keeps the car engine parts lubricated. Putting low-quality engine oil in the car will reduce its mileage. Apart from this, its parts will also get spoiled in short span of time. Always avoid driving the car at high speed. Speeding up the car affects its engine and also reduces the mileage of the vehicle. Do not drive the car faster than the speed of 80 kmph.

Do not drive car with your feet on clutch
Do not drive the car with your feet pressed on the clutch all the time. Doing so may damage the clutch plates. Keep your feet on the clutch only when necessary. It is important to keep these small things in mind while driving. Use the right gear for the right speed while changing gearing in cars with manual transmission. Always, read the user manual before driving the car. One should know which gear to put at the right speed.

Do not carry non-essential luggage
For enhanced mileage avoid using air conditioning. AC gets its power from the engine and turning it on causes additional pressure on the engine. Driving the car at the same speed range can also increase the mileage of the car. Keep in mind that the car's speed should neither be too high nor too low. On highways, driving at a speed of 80 kmph is optimal. If you are going on a long journey, then avoid carrying unnecessary luggage because it puts pressure on the engine, resulting in reduced mileage.
