I went out driving around town tonight to see why my MpGuino keeps resetting. I decided to practice P&G a little more. The cool thing about the guino is the big number "Current Mpg" display. You can instantly tell if mileage is going up or down.

89.2 Mpg over a distance of 9.37 miles all in town, I totally freaked out on this one. I was grinning ear to ear when I got out of the car at home. :rocker B-) :boink

Thanks, Will. So how you been doing?

Yeah I started at 37mpg, and have slowly worked my way up and up. The best tank I had in town before was 57Mpg I love having instant feedback, courtesy of the MpGuino.

I know I will not be able to achieve this mileage all the time, but sure was cool to knock a trip out at 89Mpg. I was rocking that :shit !!

Been good, thanks. I am at the end of my monthly 7 days of third shift tonight. The good thing about the third shift stretch is that it's followed by 5 days off. Projects this week will include the installation of my vacuum gauge and my short shifter. I am really looking forward to that.

I am glad to see that go. I hit 57.01 mpg myself not too long ago. That was a real hoot. :thumb

I'm almost positive it will...
Our '95's were the last year with the OBD I system. 1996 kicked off the release of OBD II.

These will work on any fuel injected car with a vss (vehicle speed sensor)
