7.4 liters is 1.95 gallons. 62.5 miles / 1.95 gallons = 32.05 mpg Sounds like it's time for an "economy conversion" for my car. :-) How confident are you in those numbers? Paul Root ptrmgb@gmail.com

I can relate to the amended calculation. Doing short journeys locally mine can be as low as 12 mp(UK)g. On a motorway run at 70 plus (often plus plus) a very consistent 27. But on a run back from Le

38 Imperial is pretty astonishing. Whilst a weak mixture will result in hotter running, and hotter engines are said to be more efficient, I'd expect it to result in poorer performance/economy as the
