Does or will the mpguino/iduino have a RPM view?

This will come really handle for the situation I am having right now. Don't know if my cluster is broken or something else.

Or is there any stuff that can read rpm for pre obd2?

Not currently. I am not sure if dcb plans to write it into the code or not. There is only so much code that the program can consist of, and I think we are already at about 75% capacity. Thankfully one can get a cheap aftermarket tach. The main goal of the mpguino is to get an accurate mpg reading on pre-OBD2 fuel injected cars, since there is nothing else really available.

It's a definite maybe. There is a "Pulses/2 revs" configuration setting in the setup screen that was intended for RPM computing. Depends on space remaining.
