Here are some more:
1) Keep your car properly tuned up including clean air filter.
2) Keep your tires properly inflated.
3) On the subject of tires, make sure they are properly balanced. An "off balanced" tire can cause problems as it doesn't properly make contact with the road and causes undue stress on the vehicle causing economy to suffer.
4) Remove any unneeded or excess weight from vehicle.
5) Use proper grade of fuel designed for engine.
6) Combine trips.
7) Keep from excessive speeds, prepare to brake and do not brake "at the last minute" when approaching light or stop sign, anticipate it.
8) When taking off from a stop, gradually increase speed, do not "floor it".
