NB:
This thread is not for v6 and v8 s, your case is pretty hopeless at this point.

Oya 4 cylinder peeps like me take note
1. Drive only when necessary.
2. Endeavor to shift the gear to neutral when the car is idle
3. Don't use ac in traffic.
4. Avoid unnecessary revving of the car for show off. Drive easy, keep the engine calm.

Good ideas.

1.If you have to do several things at once, do them in one trip.
2.Park under shade...like trees, canopy.
3.Don't warm your car too long.
4.Make sure the engine is in good condition.
5.Avoid traffic jams.
6.If possible, ditch the car and walk to your destination...especially if it isn't far. Good health tip.

1. by not using it.
2. By visiting friends to charge your phones.
3. don't miss church programs, they make provisions for charging.
4. what are your legs for?! TREK.
5. there's harmattan, you don't need fan.
6. iron all your cloths when there's light.

Poverty is a thing of the mind. The God that gave you a car will definitely provide you with resources to maintain it.

Hustle harder.

the only way you can save fuel is by not using any mechanical engine(combustion engine) be it generator, motorcycle or vehicle, sale your event ticket at www.ticketlander.Com

Invest in solar power so that you don't spend money on fuel generator.

MTN is selling LUMOS solar inverter...which for N4500 monthly can guarantee 24/7 power supply...though not for things like the freezer and AC.

Find out more...MTN LUMOS

MTN is not paying me for this o! cheesy

Imbibe the culture of Bicycle ride, especially, when you are in your local area. I have not bought fuel since the crises started.

Just rollex even those with automatic shift can do that
Also avoid matching the breaks unnecessarily
It really waste a lot of fuel.

For effective results you should park the car and trek. Two things will happen.
1. You will save your fuel for emergencies.
2. You will exercise your body for health benefits.
