what mpg meter for 1989 chevy celebrity?
What mpg meter would work with a 1989 chevy celebrity?
I joined the forum due to finding the following link where someone got 35.33 mpg with this model of car. ecomodder.com/forum/em-fuel-log.php?vehicleid=731 I used to keep track of mileage and only got around 22 mpg, so this is very impressive to me. I pay cash for gas and it would be a hassle to fill the tank every time, but I'd love to get a mpg meter and get the mpg above 30. |
Welcome to EM,
I don't think that any vehicles prior to 1996 have the OBD II data plug that you need for an MPG meter? You can check any threads by the owner of that car: Fuel Economy, Hypermiling, EcoModding News and Forum - EcoModder.com - View Profile: wagonman76 ...and see what mods they have done and/or how they drive to get the MPG. Tank by tank MPG is the most accurate way to go, and you can check the calibration of your odometer, too. |

The mpguino looks interesting, but I'm not confident of being able to install it. |
There's only four wires.

Don't you have to put a case on it, and program your car's information? Does it have instructions on how & where the wires are connected? |
This should help answer your questions.
MPGuino - EcoModder Or, just use a old fashioned vacuum gauge . The MPGuino is better though. > |

I think that's too complicated for me. I'll check the vacuum gauge. |
