Another Noob!

Hello there.

I just picked up a 1995 Nissan 200SX SE (1.6L) for $700 as a commuter/weekday car for my 100-mile per day commute (round trip). I am getting somewhere in the high 30s and I would like to learn how to improve that....so I joined this forum. It's running fine with 193,000 miles. It's a 5-speed with a great clutch. So far I just replaced the spark plugs, air filter, and tires. If anyone knows any special tricks with these little Nissans I'm all ears. Everything else seems to be running smoothly right now. This is a 2nd car, so if anything goes wrong I have a newer car to use, but I want to get the most I can out of this little guy.

My previous commuter car was a Suzuki Wagon R (kei car, 660cc). I never really bothered learning better ways to conserve gasoline because my commute was only 10 kilometers each way and that car was such a gas sipper even though gas was at about $6.50/gallon. Now I am living in the U.S. with cheaper gas prices but a much much longer commute.

Anyway, I hope to learn a lot. Thanks!
