Hi all,

ive been trying for a few months now to get my scanguage calibrated. I followed all instructions to the letter, as far as I can tell, but many fill ups later I was still having to adjust the offset percentage by around 100%. I tried messing with diesel a and diesel b today on the drive to work to see if it changed the gph, but it was really hard to tell. However, most of the time it seems like the gph reading is way lower than it should be. Even beyond the typical 0 at idle. Is it possible that my truck is incorrectly reporting fuel consumption? Is there any way to test or calibrate that? Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? I love the scanguage for its other features but I would really like to be able to see accurate mpg data....

  • Mpg is 99% controlled by your right foot.     

  • yep both oval the 01 sensor is the commonly used one.  Typically if you buy a 02 sensor you actually get an 01 sensor with a pigtail.

  • Sometimes the only answer is MOOOREE POWERRR!!!!

Gotcha! Yes I know the space is limited, but I figured without removing the pump, it's as good as its gona get the way it is. But if/when I am removing the pump, I'd like to fix it as well as possible and solder the wires, then use adhesive lined heat shrink tube. I was just concerned that the heat from soldering could damage the vp's electronics since it will be so close to where the wire goes in there. This would also be a case where it is critical to use solder that does not have acid correct? 

I guess it's time to start getting all the parts together for doing the vac pump. And all the other little odds and ends to do at the same time. Hopefully I don't have so much trouble with injector line leaks this time. 

Although maybe if I remove the intake horn and vp plug and all that ill be able to fix all that without removing the pump. Guess I'll have to wait and see.
