conservation
is taking on a new importance. The automotive industry is doing its
part with research and development into various technologies, some of
which may make it to the marketplace.
But
until then, motorists are looking for concrete steps they can take to
help them use less gas, save money and help the environment.
Good
driving habits - avoiding hard accelerations or speeding - can easily
improve everyday gas mileage. Regular maintenance helps by allowing a
vehicle to get its optimal mileage; such maintenance reduces
polluting engine emissions. And something as basic as keeping tires
properly inflated can give motorists an extra 3 or 4 miles per
gallon.
When
everyone conserves, the potential for fuel-saving becomes enormous.
The
use of engine additives is another tool to conserve gasoline in a
vehicle owner's arsenal, according to the makers of Xcelplus, a
single-use additive that coats internal engine parts with an
ultra-thin protective layer that reduces wear and tear and improves
fuel mileage. They point toward a U.S. Department of Energy study
showing that the nation could save more than 100 million barrels of
fuel each year through the use of this product.
Individual
motorists can expect to see an average increase of 6 percent in miles
per gallon, according to the Department of Energy study. Other tests
showed an increase of up to 17.5 percent.
An
added benefit is longer engine life. The U.S. Army used the Xcelplus
formula in controlled tests involving mission-critical equipment and
"found virtually no wear or deterioration to all components
treated" as well as protection in the case of engine oil loss
due to its coating properties.
Combine
the benefits of this engine additive with the extra miles per gallon
one can expect through sensible driving habits, regular maintenance
and keeping tires at proper inflation, and the numbers add up to real
savings for consumers.As gasoline prices fluctuate in each day's
headlines.
