23-26mpg sounds to me like an over-lean condition and some white spark plug
innards might prove it.  I could be jealousa, too.

Does ANYBODY else on the list get this kind of mileage?  I'm in total
agreement with Bud about the process vs. the event but I didn't think
Westys were able to get mileage like that.  If so, I'm doing something
__seriously__ wrong in the way I'm driving.
