Perhaps my engine needs a good tune up. The other members on my respective forum seem to be getting around 35mpg average in their vans. And they are regular van drivers, not hypermilling :P

they also recon that increasing the fueling a little ( can turn a screw on the pump ) will increase mpg and increase power , but going too far will kill power and mpg , i find this hard to believe?
I would of thought reducing fueling will increase mpg?
