OK, I did it!!! Filled up ($65 - YIKES!!!) and did my ScanGauge calibration. It said (estimated) I used about a gallon less than I actually did. It also estimated my gas mileage for the tank was about 1 mpg better than it was (due to the estimate being "off", I suspect). Actual was 23.682 mpg and the ScanGauge estimate was 24.7 mpg.
So I entered the information in the "garage" and now am #81 for best pecentage above EPA (EPA=16 combined, 23.682 actual for 48% above). I can see how this can be contagious!! More tests, or just drive around at 40 mph with the grille block & mirrors folded in for a tank!! HAH!!
Oh, with the enlarged "vent hole" in the grille block, the temp didn't go above 188 deg on a 30 mile round trip including a hill. Maybe I should pump up my tires to 60 for this tank - gotta get on the first page of best % over EPA. HAH!! You've created a monster. Bwah-hahahaha!!!!!
