378.5 * 749/1000 * .87 * (15.999 * 2 + 12.011) / 12.011 = 903.7

still well short of a ton

You seem to be accepting that I was able to find your error on the single significant figure.

However, I already told you that I was using a US ton, 2000 pounds, 907kg:

Additionally, you are not including the 3-6 pounds per gallon in upstream emissions for gasoline.

Let's recall that this all started from the phrase "about 100 gallons of gas convert to a ton of CO2" and that when you quotes, you omitted the "about" so that you could try to make your incorrect quibble relevant. So at this point I would like to call this a very "not nice scientifically" departure from anything relevant, but I'm all ears if you were going somewhere interesting with this.
