David – etyres Bishop Auckland writes: With fuel prices hitting painful highs, here is a quick tip to help you save a few pounds at the pumps – make sure your tyres are properly inflated. If your tyres have got the right amount of air in them, it will make your vehicle more fuel efficient, because under-inflatedtyres have lower rolling resistance and need more energy to make them turn. In fact, studies show that when tyres are under-inflated by just 20 per cent (around 6psi), 3 per cent more fuel is used and it has been estimated that in the UK as much as £337 million of fuel iswasted each year as a result of driving on under-inflated tyres. And there are other significant advantages to having properly inflated tyres, they will last longer, be less prone to blowouts and reduce your CO2 emissions. Checking pressures is a quick and easy job and should be done at least once a month or before a long journey. You can find the correct pressures in the driver’shandbook, inside the fuel filler cap or on a plate on the drvier’s door sill.
