Some guidance to support you in trying to lessen fuel levels in your Porsche

And with fuel prices on the rise this is something that most drivers should be considering. This is especially true if you have to drive quite a bit due to work assignments, home responsibilities or other instances.

So here are few fuel-saving tips to aid you down the avenue that leads to optimum fuel usage in your Porsche.

1. Be mindful to pace your speed when you drive on the street. Don't drive speedily and you'll notice a marked decrease in your fuel usage. This may not be the coolest way to use less fuel but it is one of the best ways, so why not make a few extra pennies by driving a little slower? You'll witness that this is effective because you don't need to put your foot down on the accelerator to up-keep your speed. This is happens as a moving car gains momentum therefore it takes less energy and fuel to maintain a constant speed.

2. You should also check your tyre pressure. Tyres that are under-inflated can really lessen your miles per gallon as they cause an increase in road resistance which utilises more fuel than tyres that are filled to the correct level. Also resistance works to pull back the Porsche so to reach the same level of speed you'll need to use more fuel. Due to the fact that pressure falls over each month of the year check your tyre pressure at least once in that period.

3. Regularly check your air filter. A continually blocked filter prevents air from getting to the engine, which adversely affects fuel economy. This is because the engine needs to cool off; it won't function successfully if it hits an unbearable temperature. If you can see light through the filter then it's likely to be new.

4. Switch off the Porsche mod-cons. Try opening a window instead of putting on the A.C., this will work to cool your body temperature down and get some much needed fresh air into the vehicle. Plus it will encumber your energy and get fuel consumption higher.

5. Streamline with a smaller vehicle. If you are hell bent on purchasing a new Porsche go for a make that is small and efficient to boot.

6. Alternatively, if you are reallt happy with your Porsche then ensure you don't have too much weight inside of it. By keeping the boot filled up you'll end up with over 40 pounds of excess weight. The bad news is that this will only work to promote fuel consumption, so spring clean the trunk and feel those extra pennies mount up.

7. Drive into work with others. As the average person takes part in a 30 mile commute to work, and works 240 days a year, carpooling with just one other person will reduce the miles one drives each year by 3,600 - a grand saving of 180 gallons of gas. A drop like this is just what you need if you want to save as much as you can.

By abiding by these simple ideas you should be well placed to reduce your fuel usage, save cash and help the environment.
