How to Figure Your Miles Per Gallons


As gas prices rise, fuel efficiency is becoming more and more of a critical factor. Knowing your car's MPG ( miles it gets per gallon) can help you determine if your vehicle is a gas guzzler that's eating up your wallet as well. Once you figure out the MPG, you can do many useful things, like calculate how much a $.10 rise in gas prices will affect your budget, how getting a car with better MPG will lower your monthly costs or it will show you just how much you can improve the performance and fuel use by using Bi-Tron products.

1. Take note of the price you pay. Go to the gas station and fill up the fuel tank.
Record the mileage, before even pulling away from the pump. We will call this Mileage A.
Drive normally until the tank is less than half full.

2. Fill up the tank again (preferably at the same station using the same pump as pumps may be calibrated differently). This time, pay attention to how many gallons it takes to fill up the tank. This is usually shown at the pump.
Record the mileage again, just like before. We will call this Mileage B.

3. Subtract Mileage A from Mileage B. This will give you the number of miles you drove since your last fill-up.

4. Divide your answer by the number of gallons it took to fill up your tank. This will give you your car's MPG.
The higher the MPG, the more efficient your car is, and the cheaper it'll be to keep it fueled.

By using Bi-Tron Global's product line you can boost engine power while saving gas expenses.
