Fuel Mileage

:
2003 Mazda Protege
Hey guys,
what kind of fuel milage do you get to your mazda protege ?
its a 55 litre tank right?
and also when the fuel light comes on how many litres are left?
i got about 500 km to my tank just when the fuel light came on
 
ok so i got 605.5 km out of my 55 litre tank, drove it until she ran out, now
thats considering that i am in winter right now and let the car warm up for about 5 or more minutes each morning
 
last time i checked i was gettin 26 miles to the gallon. combination of city and highway driving
 
i recently went on a 1000 mile road trip and when i would run cruise control i got 22 mpg and when i used my foot i got 31 or 32 mpg does that make sence to you all
 
I just did about 420kms on a full tank from the dealer. Didn't run her to empty light, though cuz I had a highway drive to do. I'm gonna try it with 89 octane instead of the lesser, and see what my results are.

thats about right , Once the light is on you have about 7 liters of gas left .at least that is the way it is on my car . I usually get about 550 till the light comes on , as for milage ,the last time I calculated it I got 35 mpg all higway diving at 115-120 kph
 
those are xcel i had messed up one of my factory wheels and i took them to a place to get fixed and he told me instead of rolling around on a spare for 2 days (he went and grabbed those wheels) and said what about these they are used and it shows for now but hell i only paid 400 cash for wheels and good ruber
 
I filled my tank full and my light just came on after 415km of driving, mostly highway. That's 257 miles according to my calculator.
 
I get ~nearly~ 500 Kms on a tank of 89 octane gas. the 89 definitely feeds her better. mostly highway kliks too.
 
I used to get 515 or so, now I get 415. That's 17.7 miles per gallon compared to the advertised 25 mpg.

Something's wrong, need help.
 
That's in kilometers I presume eh?
 
My fuel mileage is crap as well. I am going to experiment with a new air filter and sea foam treatment to see what the results are. Would bad 02 sensors be a cause as well?

It seems he is having a fuel mileage problem, so, I am assuming that he is getting worse mileage then before.
