Scangauge and Ultragauge won't work with OBD1... but are you sure? I thought 96 and newer always have OBD2. I use a SGII with a 97 Civic.

MPGuino works with all fuel-injected cars (I think) even without OBDII, although it takes a little more effort to install.

Side note: I'm suspicious that the MPGuino is more accurate, even in cars that don't have lean-burn, since the OBD2 devices rely on the MAF sensor and I can think of a few sources of error for MAF as a basis for MPG. There may be a more detailed discussion on this subject somewhere...
