Dump the wife and the brats and your van's mileage ought to improve! :-) Your sex life might suffer, however...

Really, make sure your fuel system is clean, that the van has clean combustion chambers and reasonably new piston rings, and good spark plugs and ignition wiring. If you are like me, you won't mind losing the cat converter and adjusting the exhaust tuning as needed. Like most things mechanical, dirt is your worst enemy when it comes to cars.
