Early top up before driving to/from Sydney. SG reported 6.8 l/100 Km but I believe that's unconservative. Reset SG Cal to 10.7% which sounds more realistic.

Topped up early since I filled up a 20 l can. SG reported 7.3 l/100Km. Changed the SG fuel capacity from 56 to 57 l. The book says 55 l and I figure I get 2 l into the tank when topping up the tank after automatic shut off.
