Here is my context :

- Scangauge I, so not exactly what you are using
- In gear
- Any gear where RPM is above 2500
- Downhill slope where engine braking can't bring RPM below 2500

Here is what I see when I let off the gas :

- Digital 02 sensor gauge shows "L" for lean, meaning little or no fuel being injected.
- Stays in closed loop for the duration I have seen this. Longest has been maybe 1 minute. No monster downhills where I commute, so I don't know if it ever reverts into open loop.
- I don't see 9999 MPG, but I do see very high MPG. For my car, I think the SG doesn't know it's in DFCO.

Hrmmmmmm, my Dad has a ZX2. I should see what it's doing.
