5 Tips To Get The Most Out Of A Tank Of Gas

5 Tips To Get The Most Out Of A Tank Of Gas

With gas prices skyrocketing to over $5 a gallon in some places, people are spending $50 to $100 or even more every time they fill up their tank. 


If it goes any higher we might need to revert to The Flintstones mode of transportation! 


But in all seriousness what can we do to make our tank of gas go further? 


There’s nothing we can do about the price of gas, but there are ways to get the most out of a tank of gas.


Here at BestLine Racing we know that gas and fuel in general is a precious necessity these days and we need to do everything we can to keep our cars on the road and get to our jobs, school, the store and more. 


That’s why we’ve created this list of 5 tips to get the most out of a tank of gas so you get where you need to go! 

Tip 1: Don’t Go Below Half

We know that many of us like to flirt with E and ride on fumes but we highly recommend against that. You never know when you’re going to get stopped in traffic, or when there might be a gas shortage in your area, so it’s best to stay in the mid range of your gas levels. Plus, this gives you a little extra flexibility to find a place that has a more affordable price. 

Tip 2: Use Fuel Perks And Online Resources

Free apps and websites like GasBuddy can help you find the best deals on gas wherever you are and fuel perks can give you a few cents off per gallon.


There are even some places like Sam's Club that have special gas stations that members can use that give them a larger discount. 


Be aware of gas stations that are trying to use a water/gas line mixture to save money for themselves. Keep an eye out for online tips to give you insight and keep you away from those places. 

Tip 3: Fill Up With Top Tier Gas

Not all gasoline is the same. It is strange to think about the quality of gas that you now put in your vehicle, but every little thing counts to get the most out of a tank of gas. 


Top Tier gas is unique to each brand such as Exxon, 76, Sunoco and more. It’s the additives that are added to the fuel after it is received that makes it unique and considered Top Tier. 


AAA did an extensive study on regular gas vs. Top Tier gasoline and found that the higher quality gas kept engines 19 times cleaner. The cleaner the engine, the more efficient the vehicle runs and in the long run the better gas mileage it will have!


Here is a list of the Top Tier gas companies

Tip 4: Opt For A Smooth Drive

Do you drive over the speed limit in areas you are used to and on the highway? Do you accelerate at every green light or stop sign to get where you want just a little bit faster? 


Driving over the speed limit and accelerating after a stop can cost you some previous MPG. 


It’s time to slow down and enjoy the ride by sticking to the speed limit and not putting pedal to the metal every time you get to a stop. 

Tip 5: Get Some Help With A Fuel Booster

In our last article, Do Fuel Boosters Help Gas Mileage? we discussed what fuel boosters are and what they do for your vehicle's performance. 


A Fuel octane booster increases the octane rating of gasoline or diesel and allows the gas to become more stable. The stable gas helps the engine perform better and allow you to save 6-10% on fuel when used. 


It’s a simple liquid additive that you add to your gas tank when empty and use every 250 miles or about every 3-4 fill ups.
