This document discusses several factors that can affect a car's fuel economy, including degraded motor oil, tire pressure and tread depth, a faulty fuel injection system, aggressive driving habits, clogged filters, and irregular maintenance. A sudden drop in fuel economy indicates mechanical issues that require prompt attention. Proper maintenance and avoiding aggressive driving can help maximize a car's fuel efficiency.

2. A lot of factors affect the fuel economy
of a car.

3. However, a sudden drop in fuel
economy clearly indicates that the car
has some mechanical malfunctions
which need immediate attention.

4. So, everyone should be aware of the
reasons behind the poor fuel economy
in a car.

6. DEGRADED MOTOR
OIL

7. Motor oil lubricates and minimizes
friction among different components of
the engine.

8. Properly lubricated engine works more
efficiently and consumes less fuel.

9. However, motor oil degrades over time
due to the extreme temperature and
contamination.

10. Degraded oil should be replaced after a
certain time interval.

11. Skipping an oil change not only affects
the performance of the engine but also
increases fuel consumption.

12. TIRE PRESSURE AND
TREAD DEPTH

13. Underinflated or overinflated tires with
an inadequate amount of tread depth
adversely affects the fuel economy of a
car.

14. So, tires should be properly inflated
and should have an optimum amount
of tread depth to run smoothly without
consuming more fuel.

15. FAULTY FUEL
INJECTION SYSTEM

16. Clogged or defective fuel injection
system does affect the fuel economy of
a car.

17. Besides, errors in the engine control
unit or ECU also negatively affects the
fuel economy of a car.

18. AGGRESSIVE
DRIVING

19. Driving habit of a person does affect
the fuel economy of a car.

20. So, it is highly recommended to avoid
aggressive driving habits to get proper
fuel economy as well as to avoid fatal
collisions.

21. CLOGGED FILTERS

22. Air and motor oil filter used in the
engine protects it from different types
of contaminants.

23. However, accumulation of foreign
bodies and contaminants in such kinds
of filters not only affects the fuel
economy but also affects the
performance of the engine.

24. IRREGULAR
MAINTENANCE

25. Maintenance is the key to keep a car in
working order.

26. However, irregularities in the
maintenance of a car not only triggers
major mechanical failure but also
affects the fuel economy of a car.

28. There are several other factors which
affect the rate of fuel consumption in a
car.

29. Poor gas mileage indicates that the
engine or other components associated
with it have some deformities which
need immediate attention.
