Get the biggest block heater you can find, this helps in faster warm ups. Make sure the tune-up parts are good. Make sure the thermostat is the correct temp. You can loose 2 mpg or more if your eng. is running 175* instead of 195* oem range. I run a 205* t-stat year round, there not avaliable for all engines though. Remove unnesesary weight, I see alot of people haulling a bunch of stuff around thats usless. When the engine is cool take it easy on the gas, efi engines dont have chokes so the injectors flow alot more fuel durning cold operation. Hope this helps ya.
