My tank last week, monday thru friday was a new high of 43.84.

To run my test, i did everything i would usually do when going to work. Stopped at the store, stopped in the parking lot at work.

The only things that i did not test for : usually the return trip is at night, so it is colder, engine is cold, and the headlights are on. All of which i did not include in this test.

All I can say about the results is WOW. I drove 58 miles on 1.091 gallons (53mpg). I am going to leave it like this for this week of work and see if i see this big of a change again. One can only hope.

So i must have somehow, even with being extremely careful, messed up filling on my second fill. The 53mpg is not accurate.
