Yesterday I filled up, drove 56 miles of suburban driving with my month old rebuilt (standard) 225 and filled up again. I just tried to figure the mileage from that. The fill showed 2.32 gallons. I'm also driving 185/80 tires, which I think would make the actual miles traveled slightly higher (59 according to a calculator on the internet). Isn't this impossible? Especially considering that this old geezer doesn't drive like an old geezer? Rather like a "much, much younger geezer." (Well, no rubber burning attempts.) |

You will have to drive a much longer distance under varying conditions to accurately compute your fuel mileage. There are too many other variables that get averaged out over a distance but can cause gross innacuracies over short intervals. |
