Driving Myths

Driving Myths That Cost 

You Money

We were reviewing the News today and found several articles in reference to Driving Myths that in theory could save a vehicle owner money.

The days of cheap gas are long gone and everyone is looking for anyway to save on their fuel cost. We thought it best to pass on some insights to some ways to beware of and one with great results.

First: Airflow Claims

The High-tech devices designed to increase fuel efficiency with improved airflow. They range in price from $90.00 and up. They claim to increase fuel economy by accelerating airflow to the engine. Consumer Reports tested many to only find no noticeable gains in miles per gallon (MPG), despite claims of 50% fuel savings.

Forced induction through turbo and supercharges will increase horsepower, it to will significantly increase fuel consumption, increases wear to the engine and is very costly to purchase and maintain.

Second: Premium Fuels

It is thought that Premium Fuels increase performance and offer better gas mileage. This is true for premium vehicles but they are but a small minority.

The average vehicle’s engine control unit (ECU) is programmed to run on regular gas, the lower octane fuels. If you use premium gas or octane-boost, this can cause the engine to be less efficient. Causing the combustion timing to alter with loss of efficiency.

In short, you will be paying .20 cent extra a gallon with noticeably less economy. Roughly a waste of $4.00 a tank.

Third: Over-inflated Tires

This one is costly. By over inflating the tires, there is less friction with the road. The effort needed by to engine is less and there is a slight fuel savings.

The down side is the tires wear out quickly and irregular. Safety becomes an issue as well. Stopping distances increase and handling can become unstable. As per outside testing sources, this will cost the average vehicle owner $200.00 and more. The possible accidents due to over-inflated tires can be costly as well.

Fourth: Open Windows or Air Conditioning (AC)

The operation of AC does use more fuel but offers better aerodynamics, less drag. Open windows can cause the engine to work even harder to maintain speed. For better fuel mileage, windows up and AC on, increasing efficiency and comfort.

Fifth: Fuel Additives and Fuel Treatments

Most fuel-additives address certain problems, octane-boost, detergents (cleaning agents), lubricants, fuel stabilizers, polymerization retardant and dispersants, rust and corrosion inhibitors, demulsifiers. For most their results are questionable.

We have only found one product which addresses all these issues. Xtreme Fuel Treatment™ (XFT) is a patented single product with nearly 20 years of documented proof. This product was only used by large industrial fleets but now is available to the general public.

Vehicle Benefits

• Prolongs engine life and reduces wear

• Increases fuel mileage and economy

• Improves vehicle performance and horse power

• Reduces harmful emissions and pollutants

In closing, to save on fuel costs, common-sense goes a long way. Be sure to weigh the costs, safety issues and understand the benefits. Avoid unnecessary driving, idling, drive the speed limit and regular vehicle maintenance to improve fuel efficiency.

Helpful Tips For Pumping Gas

FOUR TIPS ON PUMPING GAS

With the fast rising fuel prices, here are some tricks to get you more of your money's worth for every gallon:

Here are some fueling tips from a long time manager at Kinder Morgan Pipeline with over 30 years in the industry. We hope this will help you save on your fuel cost. Every little bit helps and we like to share.

The Kinder Morgan Pipeline in San Jose , CA delivers about 4 million gallons in a 24-hour period thru the pipeline. One day is diesel the next day is jet fuel, and gasoline, regular and premium grades. They have 34-storage tanks with a total capacity of 16,800,000 gallons. When they give us fueling tips, we take them serious.

Tip #1: Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold.

Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more dense the gasoline, when it gets warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening....your gallon is not exactly a gallon. The time of day is important.

In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an important role.

Just a 1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.

Tip #2: When you're filling up do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode.

If you look, you will see that the trigger has three (3) stages: low, middle, and high. You should be pumping on low mode, thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while you are pumping.

All hoses at the pump have a vapor return. If you are pumping on the fast rate, some of the liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are being sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you're getting less worth for your money.

Tip #3: One of the most important tips is to fill up when your gas tank is HALF FULL.

The reason for this is the more gas you have in your tank the less air occupying its empty space. Gasoline evaporates faster than you can imagine.

Gasoline storage tanks have an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the gas and the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation.

Unlike service stations, the bulk fueling stations, where every truck that is loaded, is temperature compensated. This insures that every gallon is actually the exact amount.

Tip #4: If there is a gasoline truck pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy gas, DO NOT fill up.


The gasoline being pumped into the main ground tanks is stirring up the gas on hand. You might pick up some of the dirt and sediments that normally settles on the bottom. This can damage fuel pumps, injectors and more.

Who is upset with the rising Oil Prices ..?

The price of fuel is out of control ..!

With the Oil Companies raising the price of fuel, both gas and diesel, the average person is being forced to do without in order to drive. We have to drive to work everyday in order to make a living, get food, care for our families and all the day to day needs.

Just watch any News Media and the message is the same. Uncontrolled run away prices from the Oil Companies. If you believe Government is going to jump in to help the public, Well let us just say, Good Luck with that..!

How is the everyday, average person to survive ..? So many people are already hard hit with the down economy and just do not have any extra monies as is.

We have found away to offset the cost of fuel by .15 to .30 cents on every gallon of gas or diesel. For over 17 years there has been a company with a proven fuel treatment to solve this problem.

We are here to help..! If you would like to get more information or try this for yourself just contact us:
