I'm going on a 17 state road trip and recently began just redoing most of the major stuff on the car to make sure i don't end up stuck in the middle of nowhere so far new cv axles new wheel bearing my old ones were humming tunes process of switching my clutch and flywheel i changed the pcv valve and the filter for the pcv my o2 sensor left caliper was failing so i replaced that i think my fail safe thermostat might be stuck on open takes forever to heat up and even then it wont heat up properly on my gauge i'm in cali so its not too cold to be cooling the engine down i changed timing and the timing belt component i made sure it was tdc check timing. Right before the trip i'm doing air oil filter change full synthetic oil ngk iridium plugs lucas fuel system cleaner radiator flush and 70/30 coolant. Here are my questions i want to install a thing i found on jcwhitney its called miles per gallon gauge and it hooks up to a vacuum line or port on the intake i was wondering if its worth it that will also help me troubleshoot any vacuum problems and will make me aware of the way i'm driving and give me more miles to the gallon since gas is like more than minimum wage also shoot me some things to change so i can make the 17 state road trip. Also shoot more items i can do to increase millage besides what i mentioned also one last thing 5015 miles and 148hours of driving will take a toll (no hotel stopping only gas few cat naps on rest areas) on the body so i want too get my cruise control working so it can do the job of holding the gas pedal here is what its doing light on the button comes on but when i try to engage the cruise it wont take it and the light on the cluster wont come on any ideas on what to do i had the problem where my brake light stayed on after i released it the little plastic on the pedal was broken the car thought i was always pressing brake even off so i tried to auto zone the plastic no luck so super glue and a lincoln penny blocked the hole the plastic on the clutch was also gone so i put a lincoln on that pedal too thinking the car might think my clutch was engaged tried it after still no cruise so help please so shoot your ideas for parts to replace ,parts to increase mpg, ideas on that miles per gallon gauge, and thing to try and fix my cruise control i hope you guys like my book hahaha first post thanks to all who help
