I deliver pizza and drive a hyndai tiburon gt, how can i save on gas?

Question

i leave my car running when i go to the door and give them there food, its a manual and want some tips on how to save some gas.

Answer 1

I can agree with the 1st poster, though I do not recommend adding a fuel injector cleaner at every fill-up.  It may or may not cause damage, but you won't get enough improvement to cover the $3+ extra at every fill-up.  You will also want to keep your tire pressure between 30-35 psi and make sure your air filter is clean.  If your car has over 75,000 miles you'll want to switch to a high mileage oil.  A trick to save on gas is to turn your car off whenever possible, don't idle the car while delivering to the door or whatever.  I turn off my car when I arrive at a traffic light that just turned red (1-2 minutes of gas adds up), though you won't want to do this at night if your car has auto-off head lights.  Also since you have a manual, try not to do too much engine braking, plus brake pads are way cheaper to replace then a clutch/transmission.

You should already know to anticipate lights and not to do hard acceleration or speed to save gas.

Answer 2

get your tires rotated, change your oil, don't use your air conditioner if you don't need it.. (a/c uses gas, heater doesn't) get fuel injector cleaner.. buy like 7 or 8.. put it in your gas tank every time you fill your tank all the way up.. it will make a good difference in your gas mileage

Answer 3

synthetic oil reduces fuel consumption by 5%, but it also gives you 5%  in power which is a nice bonus. A K&N air filter will give you another 3% better fuel economy, and about 5% extra power (another nice bonus)  Just avoid reving the engine above 3000rpm. The Tiburon V6 as decent low end torque so you don't have to rev it like a Honda to make it move. Whatever the recommended PSI for your tires is, alway pump it another 4-5 psi.  I do this and I notice the car drives easier and handles better.

Answer 4
