Very nice calculation. The results were that by filling up two half tanks as opposed to fully topping off one can get an extra 3.5 kms, albeit with a time penalty for going twice to the gas station. Hardly worh it as just making the round trip to the gas station would probably eat up those kms.
To this I would add the wear and tear on the car by having it run longer with a nearly empty tank, something which is not recommnded.
