First tankful since fixing rear brakes. Also replaced front pads and added Raybestos' Drag Reduction Clips on the front pads. Improvement in economy was seen immediately after fixing the rear brakes. Next tankful should tell whether or not the drag reduction clips are doing anything. Tires at 40 PSI.

Cleaned Maf sensor, Supersparkz, and airfilter halfway thru this fillup. Regapped plugs to 0.041". Changed oil to Amsoil 0w-30 Signature series full synthetic oil. Definately seems to help with the cold morning starts. Seems to run smoother also, but is more likely a combination of all the maintenance listed above.
