electricity, natural gas or
whatever energy we took for
granted. After all, it was'heap
and plentiful.
It WAS cheap and plentiful.
For example, if we Texans
like to think of ourselves as
average U. S. energy users,
each of us -- trom the oldest
to the new-born - * uses every
day abrxit four gallons of oil,
300 cubic feet of natural gas,
15 pounds of coal and smaller
amiAints of other power sour-
ces.
That’s about eight times the
world average
But, now we are in the grips
of an energy crunch, a widen-
ing rift lie tween available en-
ergy and growing demand. Lntil
something is done to find more
of the traditional energy
gis (accounting for ar>out 77%
of cur energ.. needs, ar«d dev-
elop r*w sources, tne facts are
pretty convincing th.at a short

Keep a steady foot. Discipline

Imagine thatyour

nectssarily. It may taxe more

Keep tires fully inflated; other-
wise you might use up to b%
more gasoline. Proper tire tn-
Caticwi might save the average
motorist 50 gallons of fuel a
year (call it a gallon a week). A
fine point: The Environmental
Protection Agency says radial
tires improve fuel economy a-
bout J%.
Tune up your car and keep
it in gorgj running condition.
Proper maintenance could save
yew up to 175 gallons of gasoline
a year (call it 3-1/3 gallons a
week). Dcxi’t forget about chang-
ing filters, lubricating your car
(frktiwi, you know), etc. A
dirty air filter is like a closed
choke and can cost you up to
80 galicxis of gasoline a year.

little weight yourself (okay,
pent) and if you carry neighbors
Uj work, suggest a diet for them
(at your discretion). You can
expect to lose between 1% . 2%
ir. gasoline miieage for every.
100 peunds of weight increase.
Cut cut the unnecessary trips,
fhe short ones, especially, are
fuel eaters. An EPA test show,
ed th.at a car’s normal 13.5
miles per gallon was cut to
li cripg cxi a 10-mile trip and
down to 5 mpg on a one-mile
trip. This was caused by poor
fuel economy during engine
warmup. Remember, too, that
luisy roads eat gasoline. EPA
sa>& a badly broken and patch-
road can cost you
15yi more m fuel, while gravel
roads levy a 35^ penalty and
sand a 45? fuel penalty.
D«i’t let that stick-shift,
manual transmission fool you
The automatic transmission
thinks for you, but you’re the
train behind the clutch andgear
shift lever. A properly ope rated
manual transmission will save
fuel, but some folks don’t have
the ear for high (fuel eating)
RPM’s between shifts. Remem-
ber the days before automatic
transmissions when some dear
little people ran around in sec-
ond gear? --all the time.
Be stingy in the use ofpower-
opticxi and comfort equipment.
Air conditioning can cost about
So, park your car and walk into
the haise (or apartment) with
staunch determination:
I um off lights when not util-
izing them. Lights give off heat,
too, which is insignificant in
winter, but pesky in summer.
Turn off the T\ set when you’re
not looking at it. A color TV
consumes enough electricity in
an hour to keep three rooms
lighted (turn off the lights in
the three rooms and you’re
ahead of the game).
Reduce the use of those energy,
cxne-mile per gallon loss in
highway driving and about 50?
more in city traffic. Power
steering, power brakes, power
Window and seat lifts also take
more fuel, but the amount is
cuisidered very small.
You are sacrificing some Liel
to things ycxi can’t do anything
abexjt; but, y<x should know what
they are: According to a
spokesman for one large auto
maker, since 1968, the emission
control devices on late model
cars have sliced gasoline mile-
agfc^ by 1.6 miles per gallon
(15? in city driving). These ----—«.»«energy-
losses vary according to make ima11 appliances (irons,
and model, obviously. Lnder nu e^makers’.toaslers- etc0
current law, you can’t remove
these gadgets, either. Weather
conditions are a fuel factor,
too. Heading into a strong wind
in a large car, especially , takes
a gasoline toll. Going with the
wind helps mileage.
Now if you and the drivers
of 7.5 million other vehicles
in Texas comply with all these
energy-saving hints, you pro-
bably think you will save a lot
of motor fuel . . . and you are
right
Obviously, most of us don’t
live in our cars, so there are
many other way s to save energy.
