Hey everybody. Just bought an Amigo 4cyl 2wd 5spd. Haven''t had it on the road yet as it doesn''t run but once I do I will be probably doing some mods to get the fuel mileage up. I have a Dodge Neon that I improved from about 28 mpg average to 32 mpg and I plan to do the same with the Amigo. I was reading that they have a 4.78:1 rear end ratio which is absolutely obsurd. If my calculations are correct a 3.73:1 ratio should work well and give a nice bump in mileage without killing the drivability. Also will be making a cold air intake, swapping in a high flow catalytic converter, oxygen sensor spacers, and hydrogen generator. I will keep everyone updated on my improvements....once I get it running in the first place that is[img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

My 1998 4 cyl 4x2 got about 24 mpg highway before the head gasket went out. I haven''t fixed it yet. My 1998 6 cyl 4x4 gets a miserable 15-16 mpg highway with a k&n air filter and iridium spark plugs, but I just replaced both pre cat O2 sensors, so hopefully that helps. Next step, getting my 4 wheel drive to actually work and not just blink.

update: replacing the O2 sensors actually dropped my mileage to 14 mpg. :( at least the check engine light went out. Now I have to work out why the drop.
