I have found out that my car does not like to run near empty.
I believe a new fuel pump may be in order soon.

I worked really hard on this tank. Summer has fallen and my car is prewarmed when I get to it.
I have, however, taken some gas saving tricks to the edge of my personal safety barrier and will not do that again. I just really wanted a tank over 50 mpg. It is very hard in dense trafic to use all (if any) P&G or EOC. so I mostly use DRL or DWB. This tank I used everything in my arsenal to combat the fuel monster. But I was not always comfortable so I would not recomend that to anyone. This may be the last entry for a while. The Dodge is nearing competion. |

Car still runs poorly, wasting more oil than gas. I did my best hypermiling on this tank. and as you can see i drive very little. If you crunch the numbers you will see that i drive ~ one gallon a week. I will be driving more as the weather gets better. My car pool partner will ride his Motorcycle then. I will try to find a new pool partner. |
