As far as I know, it most likely has all the parts it came with new (we've only had it 72 days), so there is probably a lot of room for improvement!
I fill mine up until the pump stops. Reset the "Trip". Drive until I need to fill up again. Then I divide the miles driven, by gallons on my next fill up.
