low fuel lamp lit @ 389 miles .

410 miles, 19 gallons, I get 22 MPG, am I calculating it wrong ? .

I don't see how it can smoke less and get worse fuel economy .

Nate,

A search showed you're right on target:  MPG '84 300D 22 combined city/highway, 21 city  23 highway

https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/noframes/26868.shtml

The best I ever get is 25mpg

Rob

'85 300D
