Sometimes under hard acceleration, my meter will give me an accurate reading but then goes haywire.......I am fine with measuring my fuel manually. robs1988 08-23-2010, 08:11 PM Mine's usually fairly accurate. I thought it a hoot that it gave that reading though. I think it got down to about 500 by the time I got back home. Just wondered if anyone else ever got a high reading like that. If only the reading was true:happy0045: VetteAholic 08-24-2010, 01:13 AM If only the reading was true:happy0045: Who says it can't be!:SMILEY::lol: lej5157 08-24-2010, 03:05 AM Sometimes under hard acceleration, my meter will give me an accurate reading but then goes haywire.......I am fine with measuring my fuel manually. Be careful with that match! blastfromthepast 08-26-2010, 05:32 AM Been there before! lol VetteAholic 08-26-2010, 06:42 AM Be careful with that match! *Flicks Lighter* Match you say?:rofl: porcelain39 08-27-2010, 02:37 AM Never happened to me, I am sure it would drive me crazy so I hope it never does! robs1988 08-27-2010, 04:52 AM Never happened to me, I am sure it would drive me crazy so I hope it never does! I thought it was pretty cool, under the 'wishful thinking' possibility. 800 miles on a $40 tank of gas in a Vette? Saweeeet. moe 94 08-27-2010, 06:08 PM do you guys get an accurate reading on your fuel milage??? if mine is correct I only get 18.7 and live in the country.

On the expressway I will average high 20' s and the rare 30 or 31 :). radi8 08-27-2010, 07:47 PM I hope I am:rofl:, I do average somewhere between 15-17. But I do mainly drive in the City!!

Mine pretty much agrees with what I calculate when I fill the tank. 15-17 or so around town, 30-ish on the Hwy. Average about 22. VetteAholic 08-28-2010, 05:38 AM About the same here.
