Let us know how it goes with the durametric. I'm in the same boat as you, only about 21-22 avg. Just did a full 90k tuneup and no improvement in mileage.

Garage
I use an app called acar for my Samsung Galaxy S3 and fill the details of my fill up's every time. On the 1st graph below the flat line is due to the fact that in Malta they have a system where when the gas station is unmanned you can pre-pay for your gas by cash in a machine which is what I do. Therefore it is not so easy to fill up completely. Thus during this time the mpg was only calculated at the first complete fill when I left to return to the UK. The two peaks are when I drove long distance from the UK to Malta & on the journey back, the rest is all city driving.

Note this is in Imperial Gallons which I believe equates to 1.201 US gallons.

Average during this time was 20.722 / Best 29.439 / worst 17.878



Here is the last 3 months only :-





PS. This is the chart showing the mileage using info sourced from Service Manual receipts etc, I only got her at end of March this year.
