Why doesn't MPG numbers show in the MPG column?

I have several fuel ups so far and only 2 of them show anything in the MPG column. Yet for each fuel up, I entered all the information (didn't leave anything blank).

Anyone know what might be going on?

Generally, the system does not "track" mileage on the first fillup, because you need two points for an average. Also, if any of your fillups were marked as partial fills, they don't have MPG calculations either. If you mark a fill as a partial, no calculation is done for that, or the following fill. This data is used in your overall mileage though. Overall, you need at least 3 trackable points for the system to publish your vehicle in the searchable database because the numbers aren't reliable until you get at least 3 solid data points.

Thanks for the info. It was the partial fill feature that I was unclear on.
