You may recall my post "Am I Crazy, Sane or Dreaming? re: Surging" in
which I described how I'd found the wire disconnected at the sensor and
how I'd noticed my van sluggish and mileage averaged about 12mpg (US).

Well since then the van's had normal (descent) performance and I've been
averaging about 17mpg (US).  Definitely up 40%!  This is after 3 tanks
before and after so I'm confident of the results.  I still want to get
that figure up as I think it's low though...maybe I'm mistaken.

Now...I wonder if that mechanic will pay the extra $45 in fuel
wasted...hmmmm
