Thanks for thanks for the info. I have vacation next week and a kill switch is on the todo list but i need to fish, it's been a dry spell. Tonight the numbers are very good, but tomorrow I will fill up and see exactly what's going on. Today I traveled 26.4 miles and the scangauge reads .70 gallons of gas consumed. That's 74.85 mpg. This is like a drug and myu speed over ground is much higher and the driving is much more interesting. If I get a vehicle coming up behind me I just drop back to a steady 42 mpg and le them go around. Otherwise I accelerate to 50 and coast down to 35 The scangauge actually recorded that 's I drove 25.4 miles, so the engine was off more that half the distance during the commute while the acceleration was more robust. About half this tank was the old drive slow watch the scangauge, eoc the hills, The other half was pure p&g. Better mpg is a high priority but it will never displace this. Sorry I know it's way off topic, but I'm physicd
