as you become more effecient, you will get a better feel for your car. unless you develope serius engine problems eg. bad O2 sensor. your mpg should be pretty consistant with a trend twards more miles per tank,
if you want to play it safe, just refil at 1/4 tank or more every time.

I'm not sure if it does, but it is fairly new so i would guess that it does have a low fuel light. I know I have about 5Gals of gas left at around 230-240Miles traveled. But if My MPG's do go up which they seem to be doing with a little tweaking of my habbits then it's going to get more complicated. Can a scanGauge II track FUEL USED??? Then I won't have to fix the stupid sending unit, but doesn't a bad sending unit mean the fuel pump is going to die soon? It happened to my friend but in reverse it would tell him he had more gas than actually did. I'll go and ask the dealer if it is messed up or not, besides my car needs a tune-up and an oil change soon so I might as well ask them. I really am not sure what to do If i want to return these products, the ethos and Tornado? Do I just email them and they put the money back in my account or do the send a check. If it's check I'd rather just keep the junk at least I have something. I've been ripped of $1k from online giant Amazon.com they are real jerks when it comes to getting money back.
