Your cruising mixture is dominated by your idle mixture. So make sure your idle
air adjustment is as lean as you want it. I think this is as true on the Webers as
the Dell. Not sure of the details for an IDA but thats where I'd start with it.

Oh and you have to keep your foot out of it. I normally cruise at around 3500 to
4000 rpm (75-80mph) and get this kind of mileage. YMMV LOL!
