Hi,

Just new here & looking thru tons of information on here!! I have a red 94 Grand Am GT. I've had it since 98, i'm the second owner, nothing has been really done to it, just keeping it up oh & a k&n air filter.

Lately i've been getting ****ty mileage & I was wondering what sort of things (relatively cheap) can be done to get better gas mileage?

I have a thermostat problem right now and will hopefully get that fixed soon cause in Winnipeg heat is a must!! Aside from that I heard about this site from Videoman on another forum.

Any tips/info on how to get my car to run better would be great!! Thanks!

hey there, welcome to the new winnipeg crew. I don't know much about engine stuff, but the best thing i can say is don't floor it ever, and don't accelerate too much either. Don't cut in and out of traffic, keep with the flow. Sorry i can't help you with engine fixes, but the way you drive is important too.
