Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get better mileage? Besides the usual not driving it hard, etc.? Just wondering if anybody has any tricks to save gas. If it works, let us know!
P.S. I read somewhere about putting magnets on your fuel lines right next to the injectors. It's supposed to break apart the carbon molecules so the fuel atomizes at a finer mist or something like that. Anybody tried this? GAS IS EXPENSIVE.

Re: Post Your MPG
i think the magnets thing is kinda tlike the turbonater lol.
 . try doing a tuneup. plugs, wires, fuel filter, clean the throttle body and dump a bottle of injector cleaner in the tank

Did all that expect the throttle body and the fuel filter. No real change in mileage.

Re: Post Your MPG
I used to get over 30 on the highway in the 2g, with the strocker, intake mani, and cams, its more like 25. 22 average.
Truck averages 17 POScort averages 35 91 talon averages 22 (weak). Wifes mercury, ~26. Its also fun filling up the truck now that we're on the subject. Deisel is 230 to 250 per gallon now. Filled up today for just over 70 bucks. WTF. Don't buy a 7000 pound 1 ton dually unless you're a baller. This shit is expensive...

Re: Re: Post Your MPG
I was amused I just got done converting my mpg to rods per hogsheads (don't ask I was bored) 4480 rods per hogshead if your interested.. then I found this thread. I just got my 99 gs spyder and I average 21-25mpg (note this is average over 2 tanks... It's crappy conpared to my old cavalier but this car is so much nicer...
I don't drive too hard but I'm just starting to learn stick so that may also degrade the gas milage.
