But the changes aren't enough to throw the mileage off enough to be seriously noticeable.
The pumps stop when a certain pressure has been reached in the tank. If it's off from pump to pump, it won't be more than 1/10th of a gallon which isn't enough to throw off the calculations that much. It's reasonable to say that your MPG is +/- 0.2 MPG.
Also, you should never top off your tank:

Like I said......I have been doing this for years.........with no problems...........And a gas pump cuts off when the gas backs up and cuts the nozzle and if you would try what I posted, you would see that you can get AT LEAST 2 more gallons in your tank.
The Enzo is driven very rarely, it is an investment that I got for a steal........and plan on making enough on it to buy several Zs, although I will get only one of course...the less miles on it , the more it will be worth...I had a 240Z before most of you were born, and I havent had one since that, but I love them because of the way they HANDLE ........I am not interested in a GT-R because I dont want a car that is not a RWD
The SR-71 picture is because My son went to the United States Air Force Academy and had the privilege of flying them after he became a pilot.
