Quick question, does anyone remember what the diy version of the FuelMizer is?

Digital Fuel Mizer

Does anyone remember where i can find the cheaper diy instructions for this, i remember seeing it somewhere but i've tried google searching it and i couldn't come up with anything

I have no direct answer to your question, sorry. But, a thought:

Most smartphones these days include fairly sensitive accelerometers. (How sensitive? A "smart alarm clock" or "sleep tracking" app running on a smartphone placed on your bed can literally tell -- and log -- when you move or turn in your sleep.)

If you own a smartphone and you're a programmer -- or know someone who is -- an app to emulate a Gas Mizer would be trivial (at least on an Android phone; I can't comment on other systems). You might even take a peek in the markets to see if one's already been written.

It might also be worth mentioning that, unless you need the "nag" aspect, a Scangauge/Ultragauge/MPGuino/etc. will serve basically the same end while providing much more utility.

Cheers,
Rick

It doesn't seem to work. Optimum acceleration is both vehicle and situation specific, and this thing has input for neither.
