Improve MPG on 2001 LX
I got a 2001 LX and the MPG is horrible. like 2/3 of my 2002 corolla. Is there anything like replacing sparks,... can help improve is? Based on experience it, what might be wrong with the car?

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

What are your actual gas mileage figures?
What kind of driving are you doing?
Google 'hypermiler' and 'ecomodder', check out their forums.

City driving kills MPG. So what is your MPG?
Tires can make a difference. Compare what is on your Corolla to the Civic's. Is it a low rolling resistance tire?

Start with thread named "forgotten tune-up mods".
Get maintenance up to par. Then get into driving habits.
Then weight reduction.
