As Tom said , do the basics and common sense stuff, like accelerating easy anticipating stops, drive as smoothly as possible .You will be suprised how much it helps . Stay away from the gimicks , Fancy induction systems , super duper mufflers, chemical additives, a bottle of injector cleaner now and then is ok . Magnets on fuel lines , etc, The only gain will be the sellers profits. LIFE'S SHORT GO FISH
