HOW TO GET MORE MPG


USE 100% SYNTHETIC OIL TO IMPROVE FUEL MILEAGE

What if I told you that you could get more miles per gallon (MPG) by simply changing over to our 100% synthetic oil. Would you be interested?

I have used this synthetic oil in every vehicle and lawn mower we have owned since 1995. And it has been around since 1972.

Since that time I have gotten about 20% more MPG in our past vehicles 1996 Chevy 3/4 ton PU, our 2002 Jeep Wrangler X 6 cyl. And the ones we now own, 2002 Dodge Ram Diesel and 2007 Toyota Camry 4 cylinder.

GAS MILEAGE RESULTS USING SYNTHETIC OIL ON A 4400 MILE TRIP

We recently made a trip to California from Missouri in our 2007 Toyota Camry. The car still had conventional oil in it and we got 30 mpg to 32 mpg consistently throughout the trip. Before we came back we changed the oil over to our brand of synthetic oil.

On the trip back to Missouri, 2200 miles, we got 38 mpg to 40 mpg consistently all the way. At one point in New Mexico through part of the Texas Pan Handle we got 41.3 mpg. We calculated our mileage by dividing number of gallons into miles driven. I made an effort to top the tank of the same way each time I filled up with fuel to be as accurate as possible.

Your results may be different due to driving habits, vehicle characteristics, atmospheric conditions, temperature, road conditions, vehicle loads, weight you are pulling and much more. In the mountains your gas mileage will go down, on flat ground with no wind gas mileage will generally go up.

THE PROOF IS IN THE TESTING

The way to determine what oil is best in my opinion is by checking the federally regulated test called ASTM tests (The American Society of Testing and Materials). All oil companies have to use these tests, it's mandated by Federal law. So it's not the ads on TV that prove what oil is best it's the ASTM tests.

Check how your band of oil rates here, check the tests out see what's best.

SYNTHETIC OIL AND AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID

Synthetic oil and automatic transmission fluid reduces friction so it reduces heat and wear too. Less friction, less heat = more mpg and less wear!

The synthetic motor oil I use runs about 20 F degrees cooler. The Synthetic Automatic transmission fluid I use runs 20 F to 50 F degrees cooler. Synthetic oil doesn't leave
varnish behind to foul the transmission. Heat is a transmission killer!

Our synthetic oil, ATF and gear oil lasts longer too. Change conventional oil very 3000 miles or 3 months. Change Conventional ATF, depending on vehicle about every 25,000 to 35,000 miles.

Change our 100% synthetic oil every 25,000 miles or one year. Our Synthetic ATF lasts 3 times longer. For many cars that's about 90,000 miles.

SYNTHETIC OIL REDUCES EMISSIONS

How about smog? Did you know that your engine's heat causes conventional oil to evaporate into the atmosphere? Well it does and the result is poor air quality (SMOG). In fact every year about 600 million gallons of motor oil are burned exiting through the tailpipes of cars and trucks. Synthetic Oil significantly reduces volatization!

Synthetic has very low volitation reducing smog and increasing efficiency. That means more miles per gallon less smog and the tests, not commercials, prove it!

HOW MUCH FUEL CAN WE SAVE?

Do you know what a 5% increase in fuel savings means for conserving fuel? If a driver averages more than 15,000 miles each year, and spends an average of $3.00 per gallon of gas, a 5% savings would be about a $90 savings per year. (assuming an average of 25 mpg).

That's also about a 30-gallon fuel savings for every 15,000 miles... multiply that by 135 million cars and see what that small savings really means... They say a 5% fuel mileage improvement will save about 4,050,000,000 gallons of fuel every year. That's 4-billion gallons of gas a year saved!

That's just a small fraction of the information about how you save by using 100% Synthetic oil.

PUT NITROGEN IN YOUR TIRES AND GET MORE MPG - SAVE MONEY!

You can save money by putting nitrogen in your tires. NO, NITROGEN WON'T EXPLODE IT'S AN INERT GAS. Putting Nitrogen in your tires is becoming more and more poplar. Get installed at your tire shop.

How it works: Tires are made out of rubber and air is able to seep through the tire resulting in about a pound of air loss every month. The air you put in your tires also rots the rubber causing tires to check and crack.

Nitrogen has larger molecules so it takes 52 months to loose one pound of nitrogen. Ever notice cars at the grocery store parking lot with tires that looked like they were going flat? They are loosing money with every mile they drive. Figure to loose 1 pound of air per month. That means you loose gas mileage!

Tires will run cooler with Nitrogen and that means more tire life.Use nitrogen and get better vehicle handling.

You will get better fuel efficiency and tire life because you won't loose tire pressure like air does.

If you drive 15,000 miles per year you will save money by better fuel mileage and increased tire life: This is what my research show, at $3.00 a gallon for gas you will save about $78 in improved gas mileage and $64.00 in increased tire life. That's a WOW! in my book, a $142.44 overall savings.

I had nitrogen put in my tires when I had my tires rotated last time. The tire guy charged me $20 for 30-inch tires and they add nitrogen whenever I need it for free. You can't beat that deal! It only cost less for my Toyota Camry tires.

Remember! The more you conserve fuel the less fuel we need and the lower prices will go!

A NEW TECHNOLOGY FUEL ADDITIVE MORE MPG AND LESS EMISSIONS

I just found something else that improves fuel mileage and reduces emissions. The EPA tested this product too... so the info is worth reading. Personally I’d rather put money in my pocket rather than the rich oil Barron's and greedy oil companies. Find out more about this Fuel Additive.

Just a 5% MPG improvement in the USA would result in saving 4-billion gallons of fuel a year.

DIFFERENT WAYS TO GET BETTER GAS MILEAGE

Ease up on the gas, you don’t have to get in front all the time sit back and enjoy the drive you won’t save but a couple minutes leap-frogging in traffic, rapid acceleration, max breaking will use up fuel rapidly. And those slow folks usually pull in behind you as you wait to make your turn into the gas station!

Try to gage the traffic lights, so you don't have to stop.

Shut off the engine while sitting in front of the grocery store or bank waiting for your better half to get back. Excessive idling uses fuel and fouls the oil.

Use the cruise control whenever possible, it is better than the foot in conserving fuel.

Don't use the AC whenever possible. A recent test on the show Myth Busters showed that driving with your windows down and the AC off was more fuel efficient than with windows up and AC on. They got like 15 miles more off a tank of gas than the other car did with windows up and AC on. I saw the show and the car with the windows down went a lot further on a tank of fuel.

NEW SPARK PLUG TECHNOLOGY MEANS MORE MPG

Most folks don't think too much about what their spark plugs are doing. But spark plugs can really a difference on how your engine performs.Conventional spark plugs only get about 50 watts of spark to ignite your fuel mixture, even with the new fancy platinum plugs.

But with this new technology these plugs reach one million watts! And that increases horsepower, torque and fuel mileage. Take a look here at something really amazing!
