UK units vs US units problems?

[Rabbit]

Worked it out, fuelly works only with US gallons whether uk or metric, yes?

No, Fuelly works with UK gallons.

I think problem is that the numbers you have entered at Fuelly do not match the numbers you're showing me here. I think you need to edit your fuel-ups so that the number of litres you're telling me here match the number of litres you see on the site. Once you do that, the correct MPG should follow.

OH, I think I understand now! You have your vehicle set to enter fuel volume in gallons, not litres. Yes, for fuel entry, we only support US gallons. It's our understanding that in the UK you get numbers in litres at the pump, right? Are you converting from litres to UK gallons in order to post to Fuelly?

[Rabbit]

Yes.

[pb]

Why?

[Rabbit]

Because when I select UK or Metric it only offers me to enter in US gallons,is there another way then?

[pb]

Yes, when you create a vehicle you choose which units you want to fuel-up with. It looks like this:



So the choice you wanted was Litres. You'll probably want to create a new vehicle with different reporting choices and re-enter the fuel-ups you have with litres instead of gallons.

[Rabbit]

Aha,thats great thanks.

[Rabbit]

In fact I went to edit vehicle and the option for mixed was there.

Thanks pb

Sure, sorry about the roundabout way of getting to this point. You'll probably need to go in and edit those fuel-ups to reflect the amount in litres instead of gallons. Once the reporting units are set for a vehicle, the system assumes all fuel-ups are reported that way.

The cleanest way to start over is creating a new car. Just keep that in mind if problems crop up.
