#1 Only use full-throttle when merging onto the interstate. #2 Find
traffic-less sections of the interstate, stop on the shoulder, do
full-throttle acceleration up to speed limit (or beyond, if you dare :)
), repeat. This would reduce carbon buildup on the injectors, rings,
and valves which could be lowering your fuel econ.
Have you pop tested the injectors? Spray pattern, weak nozzle pressure,
or uneven pop pressures could lower fuel economy also.

Not sure I am ready for this sort of radical method to improve my fuel
economy. Does anyone have possible tweaks ("tuneups") that could coax
a few more mpg out of the engine?
