You must be filling the feeder tube for the gas tank. I believe the 40+ figures for hyper milers - but not for someone that goes WOT all the time.

Malibuguy, thx for the tip on the Mobil 0w20 on the other thread.

Just curious , but how much is the cost for a jug(4.5 qts) of the Mobil 0w20 in your area? It costs $48 here. I spend around $900 a year for gas and could save around 10% using the Mobil. So I'd be down a bit if I kept the twice a year oil and filter change sched. But that doesn't take into account possibly less wear on the engine due to using synth...
