Fuel Economy - Toyota Yaris Forums

Sorry, not really have an answer for you because the difference you have achieved seems big. It may be a good thing to know such a way of getting good fuel economy though. Just hope that it is repeatable. Frankly, and I think you have implied it too, this seems to run against common sense.
However, if you fill up often, you carry a full tank load of gas often. If you travel with a half/near empty tank, you carry less load.
There are enough reasons not to drive with a near empty tank, but the fact is doing this saves you a little fuel. Just a little, hehe.............
Just added the site you recommended to my list of favorite sites. Thanks!
