OK, I reproduced the runaway on the bench. It is really really strange. If I unplug the signal generator, for say, two seconds, then when I plug it back in the trip gauges count up by 1 second of injector open time every 1/2 second for two seconds ?!? If I unplug it for 10 seconds, it runs away with the fuel consumption for ~10 seconds when I enable the signal generator again.

So it is a weird one, but needs fixing. The instant raw data is fine, which is where the trips work off of, at least that is how it is supposed to work?
