Nice, I have a log of my gas mileage over 2 years. My avg was about 28.xx mpg. I even broke it down by gas station so I could see my mpg for different brands of gas.

My best results were with Chevron and Shell. The worse was from Arco gas.

Do you post your data on this site:
http://www.fueleconomy.gov

There is a section for user data. My 58,000 mile lifetime on my '97 GSR is 27.6 MPG. I have a data log similar to yours.

You calculated your average MPG by averaging the individual MPGs. A more accurate way is to divide the total miles by the total fuel. Your average MPG jumps to 29.55MPG in that case, which is the acurate number. The 3.85 gallon fill is biasing the data.

I am dividing total mileage by gallons filled. I only did the 3.85 gallon fill right after I adjusted my valves and did some maintenance.

Per your data

Sum of miles: 3376
Sum of gallons: 114.257

(3376 miles)/(114.257 gallons) = 29.55 MPG not 29.46 MPG
