"1st gas for under $2.00/gal. in quite some time!
My pump was broken this time around. I went to another pump and parked the same way as usual to minimize differences. It turns out that the pump was acting weird? It was s-s-s-looow on the usual lowest setting, and as the fuel got close to it, it just slowed down the stream! I'm calling this a slight overfill.
SG said 8.56 gals. needed for 51.8 mpg" |

I'm surprised that this tank was as high as it is. I did a couple 2nd gear pulls up to 5000 rpm just cause (car pulls great BTW!) And expected a drop from the previous tank. I'm not complaining though
