Need some help...1992 Mitsubishi Mighty Max

I'm going to be installing a MPGuino in a friends 1992 Mitsubishi Mighty Max
with a four cyl. 2.4 . What I need help with is the MicroSec/Gallon. I checked the Wiki and there is no entry for that application.

Does anyone have any info they could share to get it in the ballpark to begin with ?

Thanks

just make an initial swag, i.e. experiment with the vsspulsespermile so that speed on the guino matches the speedo, and then mess with the mspergallon so that mpg looks "about right" when at constant cruise, then leave the settings alone and follow the calibration procedure (you have to drive a lot): Mpguino calibration - EcoModder

Yeah, that's no problem. I was hopeing that maybe somebody else had already done it.

When I get it dialed in, I'll post it to the Wiki.

Thanks

The good news is that you can still play "beat your high score" even if the numbers are a bit off from reality. It will be a "relative" high score until calibration is complete.
