bbjsw10: I'm running the Swift 1.3 SOHC transmission, not the XFi.

Mullet: thanks for that. I will admit I suspected as much and went out and ran the "jack stands calibration run" before I read your reply. Stuck a snow scraper lightly against the gas pedal and accumulated 20 miles per the ScanGauge. That'll give me enough info to get the Guino dialed in (when I get back from my trip).
