problem with p&g

recently on a long highway trip i did some p&g test and i found that it was worse than maintain a constant speed

while maintain a constant speed of 80 kph i was having between 3.7 and
4 l/100km

my p&g cycle was from 70 to 95 kph at 80%LOD and while accelerating i was geting an average of 11l/km

i calculate the times of all my pulse ang glide and my glides were 2.5 times longer than my pulse so i divide 11 by 2.5 i get 4.4 and its worse then 3.7 and 4

p&g cycles were on the 5th speed between about 1800 and 2500 rpm

maybe i do someting wrong but i cant find out my self

I know i dont have a very good write-up
no lean-burn? no good gear ratio? p&g is the answer
MPG=1 TIME=0
