Before I purchase my 2001 Echo , in June of 2000, I researched all I could. Consumer reports showed that long term road tests in cold weather regions proved to shave off about 4 to 8 mpg off the estimated. I remember driving my echo home from the dealer just over 250 miles on a 1/4 tank. I still average around 32/34 mpg, even after 198,000 miles. I have been very happy! When I took the baby stroller out of the truck and the car seat out my milage went back up to around 36/38, Amazing what a difference that makes.

Does anyone have information, links, ideas about where to find, if it exist, a coversion kit for the 1.5 ltr 5S-FE engine? I want to convert my 2001 Echo to CNG or LPG. There seem to be many coversion kits available for toyota's but they all seem to be for the larger 4cyl 1.8ltr or v-6's.

Just saying hello to the group. I have a 2001 Toyota Echo 4dr, 4spd Auto. 198,431 miles. The only work I have had on it is a top end flush and regular maintenance.
