Just a quickie out of intrest what kinda average does your fuel computers display. Mine wont get off 18.1 MPG (although it does work). I know these are normally wrong. But just wandered what others were reading.

Hold in the function buttion and a test function will appear, then scroll through with the menu button and you should see numbers that increase/decrease for each relevant sensor
