I'm at 250 and still have 1/2 tank.... :-P
But my gauge is off. I do usually get ~300 on a tank however. (best avg mpg is 27.2 so far) I bet the problems an o2 sensor... i replaced the one in my third gen and got 2-3 more mpg. black smoke...? black smoke should only come out of diesels. even with seafoam i smoked white.

would anyone recommend me changing my o2 sensor would that cause the black smoke of it running rich?
