I have a similar thing to the sticker idea - as I don't have a MPGuino/SG/kiwi etc I have a piece of masking tape - stay with me on this - it sits above the fuel guage and on it are scribbled my past bests for each increment of the gauge :

from ov Full - full = 50miles
@7/8 = 112miles
@3/4 = 156
@5/8 = 208.........................etc

each time I beat it I scribble on the tape and replace it when i fill up. because the last half goes quicker than the first it gives me known milestones to aim for and its a constant reminder to 'featherfoot' it!!
