Deez asked:

I’d like to save gas during my commute to work. I was wondering if there was a way to disable to fuel line to two of the six cylinders in my 96 maxima. Would that cause any problems if I did that?

Ggggbbb asked:

I wish I could take public transportation but it’s unfortunately not an option for me. Is there a particular way you can drive, such as holding down the gas pedal below a certain RPM, that will help save gas in significant ways?

Gabrielle asked:

When I’m at a stop sign, I always put my car (automatic) in neutral to try and save gas, does this really stop the gas though?

I’d really like to know!
Hi, I’d just like to say that I meant to put “stop light” obviously there isn’t enough time to be switching gears at a stop sign.

Have you ever drove behind a truck to save gas?

De Niro asked:

If you are driving on a fast highway and go right behind a truck you can save gas because there is less wind resistance so your car doesn’t have to work as hard, have you ever done that?

Do you save more gas in a higher gear or a lower gear?

God’sStrength asked:

I always hear talk about people with manual transmissions save more gas than people with automatic cars. I have the old school manual. Not this new stuff where there is no clutch. I have a clutch on mine the old school stick shift. Anyway, I’ve been trying to save gas. Do I burn more gas in a higher gear or a lower gear. Where should I keep the RPM’s when I’m driving in the higher or lower gear at that as well? Example. It redlines at 9000 RPMS. I’m trying to save gas. Should I have it halfway driving in that particular gear, and should I be driving in a high or low gear so I don’t burn as much gas?
