Certified. No additives. Byers replaced the intake manifold about 1/3rd into this tank's consumption. Repair was covered under warranty and the tech told me that the manifold would contribute to poor fuel efficiency. The EFI was estimating about 41.5 mpg. Possibly less emission regen activity since repair, but engine still runs rough on occasions (thought it might totally shut down during one event when I tried to accelerate from on ramp onto the interstate - more white smoke too).

Certified. No additives. The MFI estimated 45.5 mpg on this tank. Most of the mileage was clocked during the drive home from the South with fuel purchased in Tennessee (tail wind too). I was surprised with how bad my mileage was over the entire trip, and now that I see that there is a 9 mpg disparity between the MFI and my actual mileage, I believe that the engine is not running right.
