ScanGauge II calibration question
Hello,
I noticed today that the Trip odometer on the ScanGauge II reads a different distance than the car's odometer -- it was about 0.5 miles more in about 34 miles. Is this because of the calibration of the fuel, or what else might it be? It is hard to think how the distance could be calibrated by the fuel adjustments? What might be causing this?
It (the SG II) is actually closer to accurate, as far as I can tell. My current tires are slightly larger diameter than my winter tires, and my previous summer tires, so I have calibrated the odometer against the mile markers on limited access highways; over about 25-35 mile distances. The odometer registers about 5.5% less than the mile markers indicate.
Now I need to do this with the SG II at the same time to see what is going on. Does anyone have any insight on this?
