pwr off retries

I think increasing Pwr off Retries simply delays DFCO, instead of getting rid of it, so the choice is a tradeoff. I like to use DFCO more in heavy traffic on the freeway, going up hills, steep downhills, and anywhere that shifting to neutral is not convenient. However, I'm raising the pwr off retries to 25 to give the kill switch another try, which will cost about 7 seconds of DFCO, and hopefully won't make much difference to the average mpg reading.

Changing the force MPG sensor ended up messing with the mpg readout, so I put it back on the original setting.
