Gas Saver?!?!?!

:banghead: ANY ONE...WHAT THE HECK CAN I DO TO SAVE SOME GAS?! IM ONLY GETTIN LIKE 15 MPG....THATS NOT SO GOOD...ANYTHING ANY PRICE...WHAT THE HECK CAN I DO?

If you wanna do mods intake,exhaust,UDP's should get you like 3-4 more MPG, and coast to stops.

you get that bad out of the v6? try getting a tune up!

intake, headers, exhaust, pully, good set of plugs/wires/coil, and a chip to lean out the fuel curve a little.

just iceman intake, K&N filter, pully, plug wires(mostly just smoothed the idle), and a PCM with better timing/fuel curve made my car(2000 Escort ZX2) do from the rated 33mpg highway to now i get 43mpg

what year is your mustang. if it is a mid to late 80 then convert the engine to a 2.3. if it is newer than try getting a tuner and adjust the computer for better fuel economy.

got any suggestions on the kinds or brands or prices on any of those?...i cant get the exhaust...darn parents...would a cai help much?

what are upds? and i have 2000 vert...and im 16 so i dont have enuf money to get too much....and i dont wanna add too much hp if possible...i wrecked it in march i got tboned and got 3200 worth of damage to it so gotta pay that off...then im gonna get more stuff.

udp = Under drive pully = smaller crank pully

:1:

somethings not right if ur gettin 15mpg, i just filled up my tank yesterday. got 24mpg, combined highway and city, and normal driving conditions. i didnt try to save gas, just drove like normal.

ive got a bad spark plug...i kno that much...and im gonna get a new set of em whenever i get a chance...but i was hoping there would be more stuff i could do to help it? how much would a good tune up cost and who should i get to do it?

see if your car has the stock air silencer, mine droped to 15 mpg when i took it out. for a tuner, go with diablo, UDPs and a cai go to autobadges.com and get them

do those turbanators and tornado air things work for gas stuff or are they crap? whats a diablo? i heard of them but no idea what they do or costs or anything

also...whats the quietest flowmaster muffler? still want good sound...but def want the deep resonant tone...but i just dont want it screamin down the road and annoyin the neighbors

No turbonators dont work, diablo is a company that makes flashers(little hand held computer devices) although SCT works better and is normaly $20 cheaper. Flowmasters 40's are a good muffler, and without headers/a cam it wont be that loud.

please... the only way your gas milage dropped when you took that out is cause you started steppin on it more. if anything it would improve milage, of did i mention i dont have mine in, and i already posted my recent gas milage.

oh yeah, turbonators/tornado air stuff is all crap. dont waste your money on them.

i wasnt stepping on it any more then what i normally do, normally i get 20.

no, anything that i have listed in my sig doesnt do sh*t

edit: and no i dont really have any of that on my car.

my frien did test the Tornado on his car..he gained an average of 3mp3 per tank over an average of 4 tanks, and dyno'd before and after, he got 1.3whp and 2.3wtq more lol

was it carburated? on carbed motors it does work, on vehicles already with vortex intakes it doesnt do jack,

whats the air silencer? would it help mileage if i took it out...and should i? if so...how do i?

the differences are minimal, you probably wouldnt notice it. but its quite simple really, its a little tube on the end of you air intake. i forget exactly how to do it... i think you just unbuckle the plastic air filter housing, take it out, and pull off the air silencer.

so what would yall suggest in the end to get better mpg? im gonna get a cai and get new spark plugs and also a flomaster prolly 40 series muffler...other than that i dunno...i dont kno anytihng about the udp's or whatever...so i could use some direction on that
