Re: USA-centric
 

Sorry about that, but Dan is right.
It was programmed for Japanese Prius and I tried to be optimized, effective and fast results for km/L.
Please try to acknowledge/understand the international SI units standard. :)

Re: USA-centric
 

LOL. I'm a big fan of the metric system. Perhaps I can lobby the state government here to change all "Speed Limit" signs to have both MPH and KM/H on them.

Re: SuperMID Up and Running
 

You're welcome!

One minor correction.
The % value is not % time but % distance.

So, your taget is 27% distance the engine running as same as the 1400 mile marathon, right? :)

you'll get used to it, matt.
 

you'll get used to it, matt. i did :) - before i got the scangauge, i never used to "think" in mpg (US).

but after having learned my mpg (US) "targets", as dan pointed out, i stopped worrying about it.

to me it doesn't matter if the thing reports Kanseis per Farfegnugens as long as it's accurate and consistent. it's my "target" points and the relative differences between them that interest me most.

the only time i really like to have control of units is when running tests, when i select "km/gal (US)" output. nobody ever uses those units in real life, but it's where the SG offers the highest resolution for comparing readings. (i'm nit-picking, admittedly).

Re: SuperMID Up and Running
 

LOL! I think 27% distance NOT running would be a more realistic target. Today on the way to work I showed engine on 79% of distance and 27.5 km/L (64.5 MPG). ;-)

Perhaps a little calibration is in order. I was guessing 55 MPG on the way to work and 47 on the way home, 51 average. This would correlate well with the typcal prius commute.

Re: you'll get used to it, matt.
 

I tried googling that unit of measure and came up with nothing.;-) Are you sure about the spelling? What would be the conversion factor?

Re: How does it work so that
 

Yes I know them. I have a service manual from nissan, AEM EMS manual, and a hayne's manual. The question I asked was does anybody know if my car has the shutting off injection feature???

If this was sold for like a $100 I'd be all over it. Maybe we can do a group buy?

Re: How does it work so that
 

your nissan service manual should say.

but i kind of suspect that this feature isn't included on cars with automatic transmissions. if your fuel supply were shut off, wouldn't your motor would stop running (unless your torque converter was locked)?

*maybe* there's enough pressure in the torque converter (unlocked) above a certain rpm to keep the motor turning. i'm not certain.

in a manual shift car, the momentum of the vehicle through the direct connection of the wheels, tranny, and motor keeps the motor spinning, even when the fuel is off. when the rpm drops low enough that the engine is about to fall below idle rpm, the injectors start supplying fuel again.

i could be wrong on the auto trans thing. just a guess.

Re: How does it work so that
 

I haven't seen anything like it in the manual. So I guess I don't have it. But still I'd get this thing but not the beta model. The production model would be cool. I consistently get 32-33mpg but I have to go through a couple of street lights to get to the gas station so I think my mpg is 35+mpg. With this unit I wouldn't have to do any driving tests and I could see what rpm is best for shifting and what speed is best for fuel economy.

Also would this mpg computer work with 0bd2??

Re: How does it work so that
 

Absolutely, but if you have obd2 I'd just get a scangauge. It's cheaper, in MPG, and you can order one right now.
