I'm going to have to get one of the right angle ones, becaude for me it's not just the cable that's in the way but the actual "box" (before it forms a cable).

Anyway, I played around with it some more. It's reading the engine okay, i.e, I can get coolant temperature, engine speed, etc. but I can't get the fuel economy to work.

I assumed for diesel, I should select the direct fuel calculation method, but that gives all zeros. I tried the MAF method just to see what happened, but it gives bogus numbers (average of 70+ mpg), and reads zero fuel flow at idle.

I sent a note to the OBDwiz support, asking what I'm doing wrong. When I get a chance I may dig through my logger to, to see if I can make out anything.
