I won't laugh. Got myself a ------sheet that would have gone back
to tank #1 on the ZJ except for a hard drive crash. I use it to
keep track of service intervals, notes on what was repaired and when, etc.

There are a few oddities in there where numbers had to be fudged. Usually
because a receipt got lost. Feel free to use/modify etc. I just
keep it there as a backup.

I was calculating km's per liter....not liters per 100km.
The best I got was 11.3liters/100km that's about par then!!
