Thank you for this thread and documenting all the work you've done to your car. I'm learning a lot from it!

How did you get those graphs of your fuel consumption?

@campy

Thank you.

I don't have an automatic means of recording that data. I just make notes each time I stop for fuel. I write it in a comma-delimited value (CSV) format which is Excel friendly. Last I make graphs for everything in excel.

I love excel

I'm happy to share my excel file if there is interest. I keep track of

Date of fill up
Miles driven since last fill up ( I use trip meter A )
Amount of fuel put in the car ( read off the pump )
Fuel Economy ( calculated using the previous two columns )
Price per gallon of Fuel
Comments (like if I use fuel injector cleaner, 2 cycle oil)

Screenshot below of the raw data

Ah I was just about to ask the same thing with the data; glad I checked the entire thread before posting! I was thinking about asking for the excel, but I'm pretty bad at keeping on toes with stuff like that Anyway nice journal man, good pictures (complete with instruments!) and very detailed.

Many places hold an event once per month called "Cars and Coffee". A few of us showed up, but it was 10C outside and a good bit of rain came down. Good to see those who came out.
