Fuel Saving Tip: Auto Myths Around Walled Lake

November 8, 2017



With high fuel prices in Walled Lake, Michigan, comes lots of gas saving advice. Some of it, like what you hear on  drive is great.  When you get one of those e-mails that's going around telling you how to save gas, try to think it through.

Does it really make sense? Does it defy the laws of physics?

Do some research on the internet or ask your Walled Lake, Michigan, service advisor at ABC Auto Works.

There aren't any magic pills you can drop in your gas tank, and the government hasn't suppressed a device you can clamp on your fuel line to make your vehicle run on air. Not even in Walled Lake!

So next time you get one of those e-mails, check it out with an automotive professional. You'll get more bang for your buck with an oil change or an engine air filter replacement.

We're here for you at ABC Auto Works, so give us a call at 800-742-4511 for good honest advice about your vehicle.
