Keep your maintenance up and your fuel budget down!

The Holidays are upon us!  Naturally, everyone wants to be with family during the holidays, and that means traveling.  With the high price of gasoline, traveling for the Holidays can be very costly.  We are here to help you though!  Here is a tip, from fueleconomy.gov, to optimize the number of miles you get out of each tank:

Keep your engine properly tuned. 



Fixing a car that is noticeably out of tune or has failed an emissions test can improve its gas mileage by an average of 4 percent, though results vary based on the kind of repair and how well it is done.

Fixing a serious maintenance problem, such as a faulty oxygen sensor, can improve your mileage by as much as 40 percent.

Fuel Economy Benefit:                                              4%
Equivalent Gasoline Savings:      Approx. $0.14/gallon 

Make sure that your car is in tip-top shape for your Holiday travel plans, and schedule a serviceappointment with Lou Bachrodt Chevrolet today!
