As long as you know how many miles was driven since your last fill up..this is what the TRIP-ODO is good for

RE: gas milage how to figure

It's not rocket science!

Fill it up
Set odo to zero
Drive
Refill at gas station
Divide miles driven by the ammount of gas required to fill tank. It isn't 100% accurate but it is all you can do off the odometer and gas pumps.

Example (s) :
200 miles driven/10 gallons used = 20 mpg

250 miles driven / 15 gallons used = 16.6 mpg
