Default Gas Mileage on 94 Suburban an radio peice.

Does anyone got any tips on how to get better gas mileage? Anything will help. An how much for the center console peice that goes under the heater vent on the dash for the radio to look like it should be there?

How basic do you need to get?
Proper tire inflation
Alignment
Tuneup
Driving habits - speed, starts

Then you can start spending money
better flowing exhaust
Better friction reducing fluids - synthetic is my preference
There are some cams designed for improved mileage as well better intakes.

could do a k&n air filer.....maybe a exhaust.. the best thing i found out is drive it easy. instead of speeding from redlight to redlight take it easy off the line and coast when you can.....you could even do a different gear ratio also if yours isnt vortech and is TBI you could order a chip from www.tbichips.com ...
