OBDuino32k now supports tank size and gas price in gallons. It's actually saved as litres and converted back to gallons when again displayed or used, so there may be a small rounding error involved.
When entering gas prices, litres are in cents(XX.X), gallons are in dollars (X.XXX).

Why are liters in cents? If gas is $4.000/gal, it is $1.057/L, which doesn't fit in XX.X cents.

Good point. Currently where I am, gas is usually under a buck per litre and we currently count gas prices in cents per litre, not parts of a dollar.

The $1.057 a litre will display as 105.7 which is a little strange, but it works.

We could change the format easily enough on the fly (if value is 100 or greater display as dollars, else as cents...)

I just checked in a new version of OBDuino32k (version 157.)

OBDuino now features a new menuing system so that you can edit and redit the parameters in any order you wish (including just exit). It also will not bother to save if no changes are actually made.

Also, I have removed the flicker from the LCD.
