Subject:GNATT fuel log
From:David Schwarze
Date:Fri, 23 Jun 1995 22:59:38 -0700 (PDT)

Volks,
	This is a fuel log from GNATT - hopefully the first in a series of
summary posts.  I know this probably won't interest anyone except Joel, =)
but here it is.  I had to squeeze the last two columns into one to fit it
into an 80 column page, and some info is missing, but the totals are
accurate.  Noteworthy facts:  1800cc engine, 100% stock with dual solex
carbs, van weighed 4400 lbs.  Oh, and the first tank of gas was not filled
all the way to the top, and thus the first mpg figure (15.08) is artificially
low and not used in the summaries.  It should also be noted that there was
a lot of driving in high elevations and over steep roads, which was
responsible for some of the lower mpg figures.
