I don't know for sure. I was just trying to diagnose the saving data process using simpletx so I commented whole simpletx part of the code and I've put some simpletx markers in save tank area. And it started to work and saving data. Strange. Anyway i don't need any data to be sent out so I'm happy with it.

I'll try to see if mine saves the data and i'll tell you maybe it is a flaw...

One thing i saw today on mine that when injectors close (dfco mode) on big instant l/100Km it shows 999L/100Km is that normal?

Usually I'm driving with km/l vs tank or current screen but on the first ocassion I'll check that for you.

Yes it is... Now I'm implementing temp gauge to MPGuino, to know the exact temp of the engine. I'll share the code as soon as I'll make it works.

'999' is normally displayed on the Mi/Gal measurement, since Gallons=0 in that case. Seems like '0' would make more sense for L/Km.

As long as it does not log this number it is ok with me...

Hi!

To continue here

So, I've uploaded the 0.82, will install it into the car next weekend.

t looks ok, but allready have a question: how can I disable the alternating 999 MPG? I don't need it

Saidly I'm to "amator" to modify the code, but got some ideas:
-remaining KM, and alert below 80 Km (adding a beeper maybe? )
-time measure, all travel time, and all travel avg. speed
-remove the zeros!!! So display only one zero instand of 000.00
-display rmp?

Thanks!

ps:I'm stared learning Arduino
