Sudden changes in speed waste gas and put a strain on 'the engine and tires. Speeding 65 mph in a 55 mph zone increases the caris draft resistan- ce by 40 percent and decreèses the fuel economy propor-, tionately. A spark plug that is malfunctioning can waste as much as one gallon of gasoline in every 10. A dirty air cleaner starves the carburetor of needed air, thus messing up the fuel-air' mixture and decreasirg the fuel use efficiency.
