Divers tend to misuse the vehicle provided by vending business owners for their personal use and this can lead to wastage of fuel. To avoid this type of wastage, vending business owners need to take strict measures and should monitor fuel economy to stop this type of wastage.

Maintenance of vehicle would also help in saving fuel as well maintained vehicles will operate with greater efficiency. Spark plugs should be cleaned regularly and fuel filter should not be clogged to increase fuel efficiency. Keep the tyres properly inflated as this will help in increasing fuel efficiency. As said by experts, the fuel efficiency can be raised by more than 3 percent if the tyres are properly inflated.

Another good idea for saving fuel costs is to change from conventional fuel to other fuels for your Planet Antares vending operations. Propane is less pricey than either diesel or gasoline.
