Driving instructor - what should i do?

Instead of running your gas tank dry, just fill up your tank to full.
Then reset your trip odometer to zero. Then drive until the gas tank gets down close to empty. Fill up your gas tank and write down how many miles you have driven from your trip odometer and how much gas was used to drive those miles.
If you drove 225 miles and used 15 gallons of gas, divide the 225 by 15 and come up with the answer = 15 MPG. This method is much more accurate than using only one gallon of gas.

Fill the fuel tank and write down the current mileage. Drive until tank needs refilling. Refill and write down this mileage. Divide the miles driven by the gallons used.

get gas and top off your tank. take note of your odometer reading. drive your car until your tank is 1/4 full. get gas again and top off your tank. take note of how many gallons was needed and your present odometer reading. your mileage is the difference of the odometer readings divided by the number of gallons.
