There's a big jump in instantaneous MPG when the car is in lean burn. For instance my Civic runs around 35-40 mpg tops on the highway when its cold in the morning, that leaps to 60mpg the moment the car is warmed up and goes to lean burn mode. While in lean burn if you apply the gas while cruising there's a noticeable "step" in the MPGs from 60mpg back to 30-40 when the vacuum drops below 6in. (the lean burn threshold). Not sure if you could rig up a light bulb, I just watch the gauge when accelerating to keep it in lean burn.
