I have to say, all reading are consistent, my scangauge reads a consistent 41-42 mpg avg daily on each side of my commute, and the mileage markers I have for the 3/4, 1/2 are usually very consistent, its only until I get to the 1/4 tank line that I see a larger fluctuation.
You'd think that as the car got lighter it would do better. As far as weather conditions, this is S. Florida, this time of year its high 70's in the day, low 70's at night. I always have to contend with 10-15mph crosswind heading in both directions because the wind pattern here is usually east to west and I drive North to South, etc.
It is puzzling, but I'll give it a couple more tanks before I go a little deeper into this problem.
