Gas gauge busted!?

I started with half tank today; from waipio, kunia, waipio, kunia, waipahu, waikele, kunia, aiea, then back to waipio, and G still has half tank. Is my gas gauge broken or my K&N finally kicked in after 1k miles?

it's more funny when out of towners try and pronounce and over annunciate the words.

You should try and fill up ASAP and see how much gas goes in... if it's more then i dunno, 10/12 Gal. then you should definately be below half tank.

i think your fuel econ. depends partly on how long the engine's been running & whether you're blasting the A/C, etc. when i lived in Aiea Hts. i was averaging 20mpg on a 4cyl; with 6-min. commutes lately it's plummeted to about 12mpg - even w/ no A/C (windows down). i've heard of G's getting 9mpg w/ similarly short commutes.

Well aint that a b*tch huh?, when you're not sure you click on submit during a "forum maintenance" and ended up double post.
...I'm not sure but did atleast 32mpg on that day, now back to 19 the next day. Measurements got late, oh well.
