Keep the air pressure in the tires at the factory recommended pressure. Do not haul anything around you do not need. Drive the speed limit and take off slowly. Turn the engine off it you will be stopping for over 15 seconds. Make sure the engine is tuned properly and if the check engine light is on have the problem repaired. Something like a faulty O2 sensor can cause the engine to burn excess fuel. Other that this there is not much you can do. A 1997 Chevy Tahoe is a large heavy vehicle with poor aerodynamics and is a gas hog. It is going to use allot of fuel no matter what you do. The very best you are going to get is around 14 city and 17 highway with a combined mileage of around 15 mpg.
