How to compute my km/L gas consumption

Does the mag size affect the odometer reading? kasi nagcompute na rin ako ng fuel consumption ko at nasa 9km/l sya pero naka 17'' mags ako so do i have to add or subtract something?

just bear in mind that there would be approx 5-7 liters difference between a tank filled to the brim as compared to the automatic stop. for accurate fuel consumption, you need to fill your car up to the brim...

and pagdating sa tires and rims, remember na calibrated yung odo natin for the stock tires and rims, so once you change it, hindi na sya 100% accurate.

as the others said.. hindi advisable na pupunuin nang sagad at may tendency na tumapon..

what you can do is go to the same station.. go to the same pump.. at don ka mag full tank (automatic lang).. so ang kakalabasan non eh exactly the same full tank as your last fill.

Road and traffic prediction can help alot. Using the brakes converts your kinetic energy into wasted heat energy so if you roll into stop, you essentially only lose energy in the form of friction.
