Then you're doing your math wrong. What are the exact numbers of miles and gallons?

I've done the math, too, and the overhead has never been off more than .5-.75 compared to the actual numbers.

Thats not quite as bad as mine. Mine is usually off 0.5 to 1.5, once in a great while 2.

But it is still off. I read once that it will always be off at least a little, because it goes by the airflow into the engine, not the fuel's flow.

I get about 11 highway, but I also have noticed that at 3000 miles I am missing 2 quarts of oil, so I could have a bad Plenum gasket. No leaks. lol Stupid Plenum.
