And then I took the fat girl out of the back seat, and what do you know, my gas mileage rose again.

getting 2 mph better just taking some stuff out of the back of your car? yeah thats gunna make a little difference just not that big. Another 2 from fresh oil, wires and filter, yeah OK, I'm calling BS on that one. Turning off your AC, thats not anything new, Acitone, I don't even know what that is, and belive me, race car guys have been messing around with all sorts of chemicals in their fuels forever, this would have already been found if its true

Here is something that is never considered with mileage-improvements on cars:

Most of these experiments occur in the spring because people had all winter to think about this kind of stuff. When it gets warmer, time to work on your car. BUT, when it gets warmer out, your mileage improves. The catch is that very few people can figure this out and simply assume that their mileage is improving due to their mods.

Nobody has ever heard of this? The Q guys have messed with it for a while and it actually works. not by 10 mpg but it does help.
