Facts on .fuel economy
In a nationwide fuel econ-
omy test program, cars ad-
judged to be in need of
tune-up -were tuned to man-
ufacturers' specifications.
The average post tune-up
improvement in fuel econ-
omy was 11.36 per cent.
On this basis a car in
need of tune-up and travel-
ing 200 miles per week will
consume $7.22 worth of gas
(based on averaging 18 miles
per gallon and gasoline 'sell-
...., „mg at 65s! per.tallon).
To compare before and
after tune-up consumption,:
BEFORE tune-up usage:
11.1 gallons per week (based
on 18 m.p.g.) — Weekly
cost, $7.22.
AFTER tune-up usage:
9.8 gallons per week (based
on 20.5 m.p.g.) — Weekly
cost, $6.37 or an' annual
savings of $44.20.
In terms of distance trav-
eled, a car with an engine
in good tune can drive 63
miles fatther a week on the
same, amount of _gasoline.
(Based on the use of one
18 gallon tankful per week.)
Over the course of a •ydar,,
a car with .engine in tune
could travel 3,276 more
miles. an the same amount
of •fuel., (Based on using an
18 gallon tankful of gas per
week.) That's nearly the
distance between Seattle,
Wash._ and Miami, Fla-. —
