So much fail in testing.

Filled can full of gas, weighed it, and put it in the trunk. Ran car up to 65 on car's tank. Flipped switch at starting line that transferred where the engine was getting gas. (from the gas tank to the baby tank in the trunk) and then shut it off after a 1 mile run at 65. Then re-weighed it and did the math from there.
