 same 12 gallons, but I would rarely ever "top it off" since the mileage
I was getting was so good.....
 so let's say 10 to 11 gallons before "top off".....
My guess from all the discussion thus far would indicate that my fuel 
injectors must have been pretty dirty and clogged up since the car had no
"pickup" or "power" either at the time, but great gas mileage.....
