CNG Car Owners Beware! These Habits Can Reduce Fuel Efficiency
CNG Car Mileage Tips: If your CNG car isn't delivering the mileage you expected, don't worry. By keeping a few key things in mind, you can easily increase your car's mileage.
You might have heard from many CNG car owners that their mileage does not meet expectations. Although CNG is cheaper and environmentally friendly compared to petrol or diesel, mileage may go down because of a few common reasons. There are a few minor reasons for low mileage that you can personally take care of.
If your tires are not properly inflated, your engine will have to work harder, which will affect mileage. Always maintain the recommended air pressure for your tires. Damaged tires increase CNG consumption. Even a small puncture in a tire can lead to air leakage, making the vehicle heavier and increasing fuel consumption.
Just like petrol and diesel, the clutch plays a crucial role in a CNG car. If you've tried everything and still haven't seen an increase in mileage, have the clutch checked. If the clutch is loose or faulty, the engine has to exert more force to pull the vehicle, resulting in a higher CNG consumption and a drop in mileage.

The air filter also plays a significant role in a CNG car's mileage. Over time, dust and dirt accumulate in the air filter, and when it's dirty, it makes it difficult to draw air, resulting in higher CNG consumption. If you clean it regularly, the engine will run smoothly and mileage will automatically increase.
Many people think that as long as the car runs, there's no need for service. However, this habit can negatively impact mileage. During service, minor defects are identified, and if they are fixed promptly, the car's fuel efficiency increases.
