Hello Guys! I am from Brazil and have a 1993 XLT blue Explorer. It´s all stock, exept for wheels and tires (the original ones are safely stored) Looking for tips on fuel saving. Thanks for adding me.

Welcome! Newer on the site also.

I like the look of the steel wheels. They might be heavier than what came off of it, which may have had a negative impact on your interest in fuel saving? I would consider removing the roof rack cross bars until you actually need to support something up top. May not save much but they add a marginal amount of aero resistance.

Also, when you say 'small' air intake do you mean replacing the stock air intake with an aftermarket 'cold air' style variation?
