There are few thing you can do to save (or maximize) gas MPG. First get a tune-up.
(1) spark plugs
(2) spark plug wires
(3) distributors, coil, rotors (if you have them).
(4) new air filter
(5) PCV
(6) correct tire pressure
(7) clear the trunk of useless heavy items
(8) spray clean MAF sensor.

Forget all those “SAVE GAS” scams. This was on NBC morning TV show. The difference is as much as 38% (their claim). There are very simple rules to save gas:
(1) drive slow – not too much past 55
(2) accelerate slowly
(3) don’t brake unnecessarily
(4) use cruise control – whenever it is safe to do so.
Don’t coast – it is NOT safe (to coast in Nuetral) and it does NOT save gas. It only saves gas, if you are planning to slow down (exiting, tolls, traffic). Coasting then accelerating again is LESS efficient than just cruising.
The above really works. Using those simple rules I was able to drive from Boston to NYC (210.5 miles) on just 5.112 gallon (94 Civic). That’s 41 MPG (94 Civic 187K miles). Actually I was speeding at 72 MPH so I could do even better at 55.
WOW !!
Good Luck…
The current issue of Consumer Reports has a sidebar on inventions and fuel additives claiming to increase mileage. Their result is that not one resulted in a consistent increase large enough to be measured.
Save your money.
they don’t work, all the ones you see are just scams to get your money,every year there’s lots of those that pop up promising to save gas and money but in reality the ones who are making the money are the ones selling the products that don’t do anything,there’s no miracle cures for gas mileage,other than keeping your car in good shape,and going by the speed limits,don’t waste your money and time on things that wont help,good luck.
