I have a 92 convertible metro that is automatic and I want to be more efficient. Right now I'm getting about 34 miles per gallon with a daily commute of 25mph to 35 mph. I roughly travel about 16 miles a day. I do have a wrecked 99 metro with the 1.0 litre engine and manual transmission. I know the drive train is good. Is the 92 compatible with the 99? If someone knows of a thread or good write-up on how to do the swap that would awesome to have. What would be the best direction/mods to do to get the most efficiency with this car? Any suggestions would be great.
