Lately maybe due to not filling up and re-calibrating the SG2 much in the last several months the gauge started reading strange things in the "Tank" "Today" and "Previous Day" Meters; Sometimes I'll get readings like "17xx gallons used" and "$5,0xx cost" And see "2.3 MPG". Do you have any ideas why it's doing this? It also effected the Fill-up menu; I was going to calibrate the SG2 today when the van was filled up but I couldn't as the SG2 thought we went through 1,789 gallons or some high number since the last fill-up which isn't true; I calibrated it at the last fill-up.
