I recently replaced my 95 Wagon with a 2000 ZX2 with a 5-Speed. My old wagon with a 5 speed got approx. 42-44 MPG. The 2000 is only getting about 34 MPG. Is there a Performance Chip that will increase fuel economy available? The car has more power and snap than I need. I'd rather have better Fuel economy.

Step on the throttle lighter, shift earlier?

Im guessing if he was getting 44mpg in his wagon he already knows how to drive for best Mileage lol. Im not sure what others get out of their ZX2 but 34mpg sounds pretty good to me seeing as it is a more powerful engine. Do you know the service history for the zx2? You may want to do a tune up and see if that helps any.

your zx2 has a shorter fifth gear than the wagon did
