First 700+ mile tank*

I just decided to do this. So I did it. But I put an asterisk in the title because I only got 700+ when calibrating the raw odometer data. What I was planning was 700+ on the stock odo, but I had to go to LA today and the car was on fumes, so I had to give up when I was only about 13 miles short. I want to get a 70+ MPG tank next. Maybe two in a row.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
