Don't bank on that instant/average economy readout. The reason you had an average of 18 mpg while hot rodding is because when you go WOT you spend a few seconds at 5 mpg, then it takes you twice as long to roll back to your original speed, all the while accumulating 40 mpg readings. When you average them the 40 has more pull than the 5 because it having a larger value and the fact that there are more readings being averaged in.
Also that 12.4 battery voltage worries me if the engine is running.

YES! 12.4 Volts means your battery is NOT being charged at all! It should normally be above 13.5 - depending on the load, probably in the 13.9-14.1 range.
