Weekend Maintenance
Hey Gang, I love this site and here's why.
I was averaging 16-17 mpg which for a 3rd gen is somewhat normal. 2 weekends ago I cleaned the throttle body, lubed the driveshafts, installed a new amsoil air filter, checked tire air pressure, and detailed it.
For the last 2 tanks of gas I averaged 19 or more. Plus it runs a bit smoother. All this made possible from this forum thanks all!
PS: I think the polish and wax improved my mpg the most cause now its more aerodynamic!
Next projects: replace leaking air shock and change fuel filter.

The total cost of my maintenance weekend was about 80 bucks. I had to get 2 new grease guns and the filter costed 30 bucks. So all in all it was a pretty cheap weekend.
