I gained almost 30 MPG by fixing my AC system...

By buying an economy car with R134a AC to drive instead of a 3 ton station wagon with a 7.4l engine, a 3 speed non locking up torque converter automatic, and a R12 AC system that had leaked the R12 out years ago.
I have already saved the cost of the car in gas.
