Topic: Gas Mileage - THE PEOPLE SPEAK: Your car can get better mileage; here’s how - Muskogee Daily Phoenix

According to the survey, 91 percent of drivers are driving less and 75 percent are maintaining their vehicle better because of rising gas prices. Other specific behavioral changes were carpooling (31 percent), purchasing more fuel-efficient vehicles (30 percent) and making greater use of public transportation (24 percent). About 17 percent of vehicles on roads have gas caps that are either damaged, loose or are missing, causing 147 million gallons of gas to vaporize every year. An air filter that is clogged with dirt, dust and bugs chokes off the air and creates a “rich” mixture —too much gas being burned for the amount of air — which wastes gas and causes the engine to lose power.
