Fuel Recommendations; Driving Tips - Ford Falcon 1961 Owner's Manual

DRIVING TIPS
Don't look for top economy in your Falcon
until it has been driven at least 1000 miles.
It's normal for a new car to use more fuel
during the break-in period. But when it's
ready to perform at its best, follow these
simple driving tips to get the most mileage
for your gasoline dollar.
START GRADUALLY, AC-
CElERATE GENTLY . ..
Jack-rabbit starts and sud-
den bursts of speed are the
main causes of fuel consump-
tion in ordinary driving. By
accelerating more slowly,
you'll need less power and
gasoline to move the car the
same distance.
