KIWI MPG

[jtcoop]

Has anyone else tried the Kiwi MPG? I just ran my first tank with mine and it seems to be a cool little gadget. As for the overall MPG it read 42.3. When I did the calculation I came up with 44.0. So I am now running with a different scale factor on the Kiwi. The only down side I have found with the unit is that it displays one thing at a time and you have to press and hold the button down several times to scroll through the menus. Not cool while driving

This question is for all of you who own a Scanguage........When you let off of the gas pedal and the DFCO kicks in, what does the instantanious MPG? 999.9 or something like 143.7? Just curious!! :confused:

9999

Looks like I should have purchased a Scanguage. Evidently the Kiwi thinks the ECU is still firing the injectors. Thanks Altitude

My scangauge always shows a value in DFCO (never just 9999), but I bought mine used and it is a pre-x-gauge version.

I was thinking of contacting the fine people who designed the Kiwi and asking them about any future software updates or if they even considered DFCO in their algorithm. I guess when you really think about it, what it reads and what I am actually getting does not matter. I know when I fill up what the actual MPG is. I do have to admit though, the little display does have an affect on your driving habits.
On another subject, has anyone heard anything else on the Chevy electric car that was in the news a few months back. It was suppose to get like 245 MPG.
