I do remember it seemed to vary from fill-up to fill-up, and a couple of times you got significantly more mpg than me. Maybe driving style is different for auto FI than man carb, but that seems unlikely. As we don't drive much above 1000' in England, I've not noticed altitude effects here - that clearly made a difference through the Rockies. Dave.
