Meijer in Bloomingdale. Pretty typical, albeit cold and snowy, and the car sat at MDW for 11 days over the holidays. Pump was touchy so it might have been a bit of a short fill. We'll see.

Meijer in Bloomingdale. Not sure what happened on that last tankful. It was cool, but by no means cold, and the driving was typical. Must have been the biodiesel, with the possibility that I forgot to add the additive. The additive went in this time, though. We'll see if it gets better mileage on the good stuff.
