I am doing a good tune-up this week, hopefully that'll help because I never did it in two years. I read the 100 useful tips of this website, and now I'm looking for mods that'll help my car surviving these gaz prices.

Edit : I have automatic tranny
Well, first off you have to actually calculate your mileage. That means writing down how many gallons you filled up with and how many miles you went since the last fill up. You can't go by how many miles per tank you get, its just way to inaccurate.
