74,244kms - Mostly trips to Bridgewater and back on this tank. Tank filled at light-on. Still seems to be a slow leak in the right-front tire, was at 29psi two days ago, should be 32 - I pumped it up. Added a bottle of STP Gas Treatment this tank.

73,640kms - Filled the tank at 1/8th full as I was heading to Halifax. Front-right tire is down two pounds, will pump it up before I leave here or when I get home. I purchased the Plus grade of fuel for a change this fill-up.

73,065kms - Tank was light-on when I filled up. Mostly trips to Lunenburg and back for work, with one to West Northfield and back. Front-right tire was quite low on air, not sure if it's a slow leak or wasn't properly inflated when my summers were swapped on. Will keep an eye on it...

71,834kms - Tank was again at about slightly less than 1/8th remaining when I filled it. As with last time, filled on my way to New Germany High. A number of trips to New Germany and back on this tank. Winter tires were still on at the time of this fill-up, but were literally replaced with the summers the day after.

70,216kms - Grant is over at the Library, mostly short trips to various places in Bridgewater/Lunenburg/Mahone Bay area for computer work. Tank was halfway below 1/8th at fillup. Fuel economy seems to be starting to increase with the warmer weather! :)

68,800kms - Last week of the first part of this Library grant this tank - 1 trip to Greenfield, and 1 trip to Liverpool, but mostly trips to Lunenburg and Bridgewater. Lower mileage may be due to the fact I had to carry a lot of cargo around these last 2 weeks. Tank was again down to around less than 1/4 at time of fill-up.

66,515kms - As always, trips to Greenfield, Lunenburg & Bridgewater for work, sometimes with the heavy case of laptops in the car. Got stuck a few times in our unplowed subdivision on this tank, so may have wasted some fuel there trying to get stuck, which could account for the lower economy on this tank. The cold temps don't help! Tank was down to a bit less than 1/4 left this time.

66,090kms - Warmer temps the last week or so, which might explain the (BARELY) better mileage! Back to work on the 9th, so this tank involved a week and a half of the usual trips to Lunenburg, Greenfield and Bridgewater. Tank was down to about 1/4 left this time, maybe a tiny bit less.

65,660kms - Mostly trips from the holiday break, i.e. to Bridgewater and Lunenburg. A few of the trips involved carrying a lot of cargo or other people. Tank was down to about 1/8th left this time, maybe a tiny bit more. Temps were higher for one or two days on this tank, but most were still quite cold - this meant some wasted idling to defrost the car and lower fuel economy in general.

65,174kms - Mostly trips to Bwater this tank with a few to Lburg, and one to Greenfield. Tank was down to about 1/4 left this time. Temps have once again been quite cold for some of the most recent days resulting in a lot of idling to unfreeze windows, which would have caused the lower fuel economy this tank.

64,748kms - Trips between Bwater, Lburg, and Greenfield this tank - slower due to poor roads conditions. Tank was down to about 1/8th left this time and I added a bottle of STP "Water Remover" in case there was any condensation affecting the MPG. Temps have been VERY cold the last few days, -16 to -20 today, maybe that affected the much lower fuel economy this tank? NOTE: On the next tank, add 2.4kms to the distance traveled - forgot to reset Odometer before leaving gas station.

64,261kms - More trips between Bridgewater, Lunenburg, and Greenfield this tank, so mostly 80/90/100kph. Checked pressure in the winter tires and pumped up to 35psi - in the 3-5psi range more than the door placard states [32psi usually] as recommended due to the colder ambient temps in wintertime. Did one more "to empty" tank this time as ambient temps relatively high lately for this time of year (less chance of condensation) - light came on just as I pulled into the gas station.

63,670kms - Trips between Bridgewater, Lunenburg, and Greenfield this tank, so mostly 80kph/90kph/100kph. Still lower MPG...wondering if I have a clogged fuel pump/line/injector? Car runs ok, but feels like it has less power than I remember (heavier winter tires)...? As winter is here, I will not be doing "distance tanks" (full to light-on empty to see how far I can get on a tank) to help prevent condensation in my gas tank, I'll be filling my car at 1/4 to 1/2 full.

63,212kms - Trips between the Bridgewater, Lunenburg, Liverpool (once), and Greenfield libraries on this tank, so mostly 80kph/90kph/100kph speeds. The road to Greenfield is not consistent in speed though, with many twists and turns. Lower MPG again this tank compared to usual. I, once again, filled up before the light came on (it should've been coming on any second though). Tires were changed over to my winters by Gary on Nov. 14th, so perhaps their added weight lowered economy?

62,643kms - Again, mostly short trips to Lunenburg and back (9kms one way) with only 1 trip to New Germany and back. Also 1 trip to Liverpool. Filled up there as gauge was almost on 'E' and wasn't sure how much fuel left to risk 64km trip back. Very low MPG this tank compared to usual...did the Octane Booster last fill-up cause this...? I filled up before the light came on with a little over 8L left in the tank (light usually comes on with around 7L left).

62,083kms - Mostly short trips to Lunenburg for work with 2 to New Germany for subbing. Added STP Octane Booster this tank. The Fuel Light flickered near tank-empty - came on entering Lunenburg Tim Hortons parking lot (607kms), went out down Schnare's Crossing Rd. hill, came back on on Fauxburg Rd. on the way to get gas. Car was for service at Oregans on Oct. 2nd. Ignition Antenna Coil replaced under warranty, rear brakes cleaned & adjusted, parking brake tightened.
