Yes it works on OBD1. It directly monitors Fuel injection and vehicle speed sensors and calculates consumption directly from that. I got my VSS signal from the back of the cluster, the injector signal from a wire at the computer (I vaguely remember it being a brown one but there was a diagram somewhere on the interwebs) and the 12v + and ground from the clock.
