You can't really go by the built in trip, particularly on a single tank, it's much more accurate to fill it to the brim and record the mileage, then next time to do the same and work out how much fuel you've put in to brim it against the mileage, then you'll get an accurate MPG.

yeah i suppose you are right, it idles higher than before around the 1100 rpm when before i'm sure it was 800, also seems a lot more eager to kick down.
