So  I stand by the 40mpg. In fact, a few weeks  
ago, I got over 30 IN  TOWN.... and I'm talking big-city, stop-and-go,  
never-get-over-40mph  kind of in-town. When I lived at higher  
elevation and had it jetted  smaller, I could do even better. 
I do have 1 question, what size front tires are you running? I'm only  
asking, because tire size does have a direct input on the number of miles being  
recorded. On my own cars, I have to do a tire size calculation to get the  
numbers right, otherwise I get really good mileage. My front tires are  
195-60-15's, and stock are 165-80-15's, so there's a big difference in size.
