    Put a brick under the gas pedal hehehe. . . Kidding aside oil viscosity really helps kasi thinner oils tend to free the engine components and thus contributing to fuel economy. Pero If I Were you i'd stick to factory specs na lang, and ease of the gas pedal.

    - keep your car in top condition.
    - i also read na don't go beyond 80kph daw.
    - make your car lighter, basic tools at spare tire lang ang dapat na laman ng compartment.
    - +1 sa oem timing settings.
    - correct tire pressure.

    others:
    kapag malapit lang pupuntahan, commute na lang.

    OT:
    malapit na naman ang weekend, tataas na naman ng piso. :-(

    Less viscous or thinner oils allow the parts to have less friction between them, requiring less energy, and therefore less fuel to be consumed. It also provides easier starts, which again means less fuel consumed to start the engine compared to a thicker oil.

    you can try doing hyper-mileing techniques when possible to stretch to the maximum each liter of fuel you have.

    -smooth and easy acceleration
    -moderate maximum speed
    -use coasting as much as possible
    -use the brakes as little as possible
    -use the car's natural deceleration as you slow to a stop at intersections

    Driving at a certain speed with your manual tranny in neutral. The car would simply move using the momentum you have built up.
