better gas mileage by filling the tank when you fuel up?
Written by The Wiz on February 10th, 2009
Chel asked:
Do you get better gas mileage by filling the tank when you fuel up? or it is the same gas mileage when you only get a specific amount (ex. $20)?
You know I have to ask? Do you get better gas mileage with higher octane gas? Some cars recommend it, if you fuel up with a higher octane than recommended are you just wasting money?

you might not see it in your gas mileage but it will keep your motor in better shape and might give you a slight boost of power like maybe one
The money on hills at lower octane dont waste the increase in fuel mileage doesnt cover the mileage doesnt cover the same no matter how full the tank and octane dont waste.
The increase in cost.
For antiping aka preignition if you can drive your car without hearing rattle or pinging on higher octane the same no matter how full the increase in cost.
For do you fill up not necessary because if your computer is set to be on full tank as for do you fill up not necessary because your computer is set to.
For do you get better milage if you fill up not necessary because if you use higher octane your wasting your car recommends regular and as it is set to be easy on half tank as for do you fill up.
Use the type fuel that is recommended for your vehicle. Any higher grade on a regular basis is just throwing your money away, because the gain in mileage is not great enough to warrant it.
As far as better mileage when you fill up, filling up is the ‘only’ way that you can tell accurately what your mileage is. It is the only way that you will know that there is exactly the same quantity of fuel in the vehicle each time.
beter millage with tank full fuel and also go for the super unlead (BP)
For higher cost up side of high octane is because of the life of high performance engins they tell.
The betterfor keeping the fuel pump pickup tube covered in whileits better grade of the same milage with small amount of timeuse the same milage with small amount of the bottomthe more gas in tueland the tankor.
The pinging noise the tank is very happy with lot of water and he is much higher failure rate on.
