18mpg is what it should get with mixed city/hwy driving. Your really not gunna get much better unless its stricly highway road trip or something then your gunna get 20-22mpg. Theres some bolt ons you can do to increase you hp/tq a little and improve throttle response.

What r u doing driving on public roads at 15???
anyway ..It is hard to get better mileage and better acceleration since you need more fuel to get more accleration.Some things that you can do are..

-tune up, new plugs,cap,rotor,possibly wires
-replace your ignition coil if it is original as they break down over time.
-Do a "search" for the TPS mod I found it made a difference on my orange truck. Unless your has a carb
-some kind of Cold Air Intake with a K&N filter
-there are mods you can do to the throttle body that help unles yours has a carb
-replace your exhaust manfolds with headers.
-high flow cat

some of these things are expensive but one thing at a time over time and it can be done
