 The number one topic that people are discussing around the world is the high price for gasoline and diesel. A primary factor affecting the economy of a nation, a state, a city, or even a family, is the price of fuel. Families cut back on shopping for new products because their budgets are impacted by the rising gas prices. It costs more to fly because a в€œfuel surchargeв€ is added to the ticket cost, thereby causing some people to postpone their trip to grandma's, or delay their vacation. Businesses are also impacted because the cost of sales rises with the cost of fuel∦ Municipalities are adversely affected as well. These actions are not limited to the United States, but are global in scope.
Leo Huggins of Smart Choices will keep you informed about the best options for your automobile in a world of ever-increasing gas prices.

 | Do you know how a non-stick frying pan works? The coating keeps stuff from sticking to the surface of the pan. That’s how MPG-CAPS™ work too, by coating the combustion chamber of your engine with sacrificial catalytic coating. This micro-thin coating acts to catalyze pump fuels and dramatically improve your performance. As long as you continue to use the MPG-CAP™, the catalyst will continue to inhibit detrimental effects of sulfur molecules and other impurities found in pump fuels, retarding the formation of sludge, varnish and acids that are harmful to your engine. Your engine runs smoother, cleaner, has more pep, and you get the benefit of better gas mileage.

Smart ChoicesWe will begin with one or two ways to keep your car out of the shop today!
1. Start It Up Properly
"Most of the wear on an engine happens when you start the car," says Edmunds.com's automotive expert Karl Brauer. "If you can get the starter stuff down, you'll find cars will wear much less over time." How do you do that? Make sure any extra accessories, such as headlights or climate control, aren't on when you turn the ignition. If you do, you're asking the engine to work harder than necessary right off the bat.
An even more destructive habit: revving the engine. Believe it or not, this won't help warm up the car. In fact, revving can do serious damage to the engine and significantly shorten its life. Engines need oil to run smoothly. But right after you turn over the ignition, the oil is still sitting in the pan. When you floor the gas pedal, you're asking the engine to work overtime without lubricant, putting metal to metal. Wear out this most important drive train component and you can expect to pay $3,000 to $5,000 for a new one.

Extend your travel distance per gallon of fuel: Saving Money at the Gas Pump.
1. Check the gas prices on the link below for your Zip Code. Don't waste gas to drive to the cheapest place to get gas. It's simple do the math. If it's ten miles to cheap gas that is a 20 mile round trip. Forget it! Less miles? GO FOR IT!
CHEAPEST GAS CLOSE TO YOUR HOUSE
If you shop at Kroger, you can save $.10 over nearby stations by using the Kroger Card. A membership at Costco or Sams' Club will get you a better price also.

Extend your travel distance per gallon of fuel: When to fill your Gas tank.
These tips will be a benefit to you as you become accustomed to following them each time you enter a gasoline station.
One of the most important tips is to fill up when your gas tank is HALF FULL or HALF EMPTY. The reason for this is, the more gas you have in your tank the less air occupying its empty space. Gasoline vaporizes faster than you can imagine. Gasoline storage tanks have an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the gas and the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation. Unlike service stations, every truck loaded from the refinery or tank farm is temperature compensated so that every gallon is actually the exact amount.
Another reminder. If there is a gasoline truck pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy gas, DO NOT fill up--most likely the gasoline is being stirred up as the gas is being delivered, and you might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles on the bottom.

Extend your travel distance per gallon of fuel: More tips for saving at the gas pump!
When you're filling up do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode. If you look you will see that the trigger has three (3) stages: low, middle, and high. In slow mode you should be pumping on low speed, thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while you are pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapor return. If you are pumping on the fast rate, some of the liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are being sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you're getting less worth for your money.

Extend your travel distance per gallon of fuel: Learn how to save money on gas for your automobile with these tips, brought to you by Leo Huggins of Smart Choices. Today we'll talk about when is the best time of day to purchase gas.
Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more dense the gasoline, when it gets warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening....your gallon is not exactly a gallon. In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an important role. A 1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.
