No, that is what I am referring to, seems the dots are not the most accurate below half a tank. That gauge is basing all its assumptions off your range, injector size, etc. And once you start messing with tuning, injectors, and such it throws it off.
MPG you just do manually, I think mine reports out I get 30MPG now which is not close at all. Range will usually over estimate at first but after the first 30 miles it comes close to what I usually get per tank but I never have it on that screen. I keep it on outside temp.
