How To Save 12 Cents A Gallon At The Gas Pump

WASHINGTON - You may be missing out on easy savings at the gas pump. And, it comes down to tire pressure.
 
Most people don't know properly inflated tires can save you 12 cents a gallon at the pump.
 
Dan Zielinski, a tire safety expert, recommends getting your own tire gauge because the one at the gas station has probably been thrown around a few times. It may not be entirely accurate.
 
"Use the correct pressure. Don't look on the tire sidewall. Look for a vehicle label that's on the driver's side door or check the owner's manual ," he says.

a lot of newer cars have a light that comes on in the dash if tire pressure gets low.

This is a crock and makes very little if any difference in mileage.
