Do you think adding a piece of coroplast to the trunklid to lay down the spoiler angle would be more effective?
Edit: Taking some advice from here, it seems like adding coroplast to lay the spoiler down to a 30* angle and meeting the roofline at a 12*-13* angle seems ideal. I think I'm pretty close to that, after some quick Gorilla tape/coroplast work. We'll see what happens.
Update: Okay, dropping the spoiler angle to 30* and extending it to meet the roofline at 12* seemed to make things worse. The needle dropped much faster than it usually does. There wasn't any wind, so that wasn't a factor. I'll pull it off and try the rest of the tank without a spoiler.

I would be very reluctant to gauge any performance on the position of the fuel gauge.After 320,000 miles on the T-100 it remains 'unreliable' as an indicator.
