The renowned car mechanic recently discussed several ways drivers could double their fuel economy in a clip posted to his YouTube channel, where he boasts nearly six million followers.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you want better gas mileage don\u2019t use scam gadgets, but use the tips I just showed you,\u201d Kilmer declared in the clip. \u201cToday I\u2019m going to show you how to get better gas mileage in your car and it\u2019s not by using scam devices – don\u2019t be fooled.”<\/p>\n
Kilmer warned that the market is rife with devices promising to extend gas mileage, which he claims are a total scam.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, there are simpler and more efficient ways to save on gas mileage which will be infinitely more beneficial to vehicles in the long run.<\/p>\n
Among the \u201creal things\u201d you can do to improve gas mileage is keep tabs on your tyre pressure, explained Kilmer.<\/p>\n
He continued: \u201cMake sure your tyre pressure is right, if it\u2019s wrong, [your] tyre will have too much friction, [resulting in] worse gas mileage.\u201d<\/p>\n
A second and equally important factor is maintaining your air filter, which should be cleaned regularly to encourage enough air to travel into the engine.<\/p>\n
Don’t miss… <\/strong> \u201cDon\u2019t have a dirty air filter,\u201d explained Kilmer. \u201cYour car burns thousands of cubic feet of air, you can\u2019t stop that flow.\u201d<\/p>\n Additionally, drivers should pay attention to using their vehicle at a moderate speed, with Kilner noting: “The faster your engine spins, the more fuel it\u2019s is using up.”<\/p>\n Last but not least, drivers are encouraged to pay attention to how cluttered their vehicle is, as uncluttered spaces are best for lowering fuel mileage.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cThe less weight you carry the better the gas mileage, so if you want better gas mileage\u00a0 don\u2019t use [… scam gadgets],” added the mechanic.\u00a0<\/p>\n
