Once with straight D2 at some random Citgo the night I bought it. The second time with B11 biodiesel at the JR Fuels, 1100 N Ellis St, Bensenville IL &#8211; near O&#8217;Hare. They only have biodiesel at pump #11. It&#8217;s an out of the way station, the pump is dirty, mislabedel (has a &#8220;Premium Diesel&#8221; sticker on it) and generally not a great experience. The pump must&#8217;ve clicked off early, as I calculated 52 mpg from the first tank. I then went ahead and using the venting instructions i read at <a href=\"http:\/\/forums.tdiclub.com\">the TDIclub forums<\/a> put in another couple gallons. If i used the average 1.5 gallons extra space when venting, i should&#8217;ve been able to fit 8.5 gallons in before the pump normally shut off, yielding 43.5 mpg. Nice.<\/p>\n<p>Topped up at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alwarrenoil.com\">Al Warren Oil Co<\/a>&#8216;s pump at 7625 W 59th St in Summit, IL. This one was properly labeled, clean, and despite a confusing credit card swipe machine, worked great. Topping up here with B11 a day after filling up in Bensenville yielded a more believeable 43.4 mpg, far closer to what the first fill up should&#8217;ve been. Nice.<\/p>\n<p>Man, this is a sweet car.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have filled up my car exactly twice and topped off once since I bought it almost 2 weeks ago.
