I will tell you that the halfway mark on the gas gauge is not half a tank...

Also, lately I've been getting 400+ miles to a tank full or about 28-29 mpg.

Un-modded 99 1.8TQM with 250K + miles on her. Recent new MAF, ICM, and spark plugs.

I got 400miles out of a full tank on my car. Most of it Highway but I did drive a little in town. I filled up again and took the mileage and divided by gallons. I remember is was 31 - 32 mpg. I usually get around 285 for a full tank driving in town. I went from Phoenix, Az to Lake Havasu, Az and got to Buckeye, Az before i had 1.3gallons left in tank.
