Summer is here and it looks like gas prices aren't going to
permanently go down any time soon. As predicted, it looks like we're
in for a summer of high gas prices.
Many consumers are searching for ways to save on their overall fuel
costs. There are plenty of gas saving tips that you can follow that
have been show to increase your overall gas mileage. One that is often
overlooked is using a fuel additive to increase your car's
performance. But what types of fuel additives are available and what
do they do?
First, please understand that when I talk about fuel additives I am
not necessarily talking about other products like detergents and
injection cleaners. Most fuel additives are put directly into the gas
tank to increase your octane. Most will also have some other
beneficial effects on your engine such as cleaning out carbon deposits
which will also increase your overall gas mileage.
Some of the benefits of using a good fuel additive include the
following


Increase gas milage
Decrease octane requirement (let's you get more out of lower octane
gas)
Reduce carbon deposit build up in the engine
and usually more depending on the brand

As you can tell, there are a lot of benefits to using some type of
fuel additive. Make sure that it's a product that's been on the market
for awhile and has been proven to work by independent companies. It's
one thing to have the manufacturer say that it works, but it's another
thing entirely to have the backing of another company that is not
associated with the maker. Don't just believe the hype of some
products, get some good background to make sure you're using an
effective
product.
