Im just wondering if ther are any things that i can do to my 4runner to save me a little bit more gas...???

right now there has been nothing do to my 4runner

 

Sell it ....

But on a serious note...
Air pressure in tires...
Spark plugs and wires, air filter fuel filter..
What Size tires...? Gears could help...

You might try searching on the topic though...

 

park it and look at it!


ok take it easy and drive like a grandma theres really nothing you can do to give it metro like mpg's

 

hahah sell it
im checking air pressure 2marow ...spark plugs new ..air filter new..fuel filter im about to replace i just need to find where it goes first...size of tires i dont know...if i get bigger tires does it waste more gas????

 

well i know...but i was just asking because a little can help

 

umm, Maybe try a fuel system cleaner after you do the FF (Passenger side frame rail), injectors might be alittle clogged..
Yes, If you do go bigger tires without regearing your economy will go down...
Curious though, What MPG are you getting now..?

 

iv done a fuel system cleaner i used sea foam. i dont really know but a full tank will last a little less than 200 miles i think

 

That cant be good...
Im going to go out on a limb and *Guess* you have 31 10.5 inch tires... 95 auto v6 thats what 4.56? anyone..?
umm...Next I would suggest 02 sensors not functioning properly and the ecu dumping wayy to much fuel into the engine...
Search on how to test those out with a multimeter...

 

i should really test mine....i'm getting 15 mpg out of a 22re....

 

i did change one c02 sensor on the car...the one before the catalytic converter...you think i should get the other replaced?? could anything have to do with maybe something not working with the vacc. system not working right??

 

My guess you be you have stock gears, 4.10's, and the 33's arent helping...
4.88's FTW !!


You could try...I dont think it would hurt..
Umm, Not that I know of..
Do you think you have a vacuum leak..?

 

im not sure if i do but i was told that maybe some of the houses might be connected wrong or some value might not be working...but im not to sure about that..and all the diagrams iv seen for some reason dont look like what im looking at in my car

 

correct. but i was getting 17 mpg with 31s. i should be getting mpg in the 20s , i've always had a problem since i bought it. too lazy/poor to fix it

damn egr is throwin a code


5.29s FTW!!!!!!!

 

YEA TO POOR HERE TOO!! hahaha

 

i get highway 25MPG on my 3.0L petrol, here is what i recommend to achieve great MPG:
Tire Pressure
Tire Size
Gears
Keep the highway speeds under 60mph
Transmission (5spd or Auto)
Slow, gradual acceleration

 

give it to me

 

i will trade you my mountain bike for it
it gets infinite miles per gallon

 

5 speed swap...i went from 15 or 16 to 20.5 (MPG)

 

wax it really good and put rain x on the windows.... Oh yes and add some really smaller than stock tires.

Hmm another big clue is sitting in your signature needs a tune up.... Try that it will probably improve your mileage.

Umm also likely if he has a 95 automatic it has 4.88 gears already with a 31" tire option. If the code on the door pillar says G144 it has them.

 

That's not true- how much water do you go through riding... and the cost per gallon of water is?


anyhow- to j17noriega:
basic tune-up: plugs, wires, dist. cap, rotor, coil maybe
also air filter, fuel filter, valve adjustment, tire pressure, an oil change to a suitable weight oil, trans and gear oil change, lube the driveshaft(s), as little weight as necessary in the vehicle...
...basically everything that's been mentioned.
