Honda Insight fuel cut on ScangageII
I've had my ScangageII for a couple of weeks now and I was wondering why it shows a .2 ~ .3 Gallon per hour fuel flow when the Honda Insights L/100km gage is showing fuel cut when going downhill?

It's a bug. The SG doesn't report fuel cut under over-run accurately for all cars.

On my Honda Fit I can recognize the fuel cut because the report goes to open loop; a future SG version might be able to use this, but it's complicated by the fact that the car reports a minimum throttle position of 13 or 14 rather than 0. |
That's a better description, yes. (I didn't say whose bug it was :))
Calling it a bug is overstating things as well, since I don't even know if OBDII has standards that require them to specifically report fuel cut the same way across brands/models. FYI, my car also reports minimum throttle pos of 13. |
Which leads to another question. My throttle positon sensor reports from 8 to 92 for zero to full throttle. Is that another Scangage bug?

Not sure. Ask the ScanGauge people - Ron's good at answering mail. I'd be curious to hear what he says.
However, it sounds to me like just another non-standard OBDII practice. |
