what is that

 

Its a Scan Gauge that hopefully I can mount in the dash below my POS aftermarket radio.
Heres the link: http://www.pureenergysystems.com/sto...uge/index.html

I bought it primarily to monitor Volts, Temp, Mileage & 1 other which is undecided @ this point. Since the install of the EFan & the underdrive pulley I really need to monitor the coolant temp & electrical voltage a little closer & idiot gauges just don't do it for me.

hmmm, neato! I wonder if that would fit in the little cubby below my AC control where my airbag disable switch is?

 

Heres the size:

I've read a bunch of reviews on it & they are all positive.

Rick

 

brb....lol

EDIT:

Cubby is tall and deep enough, but not wide enough. 0.8 inch = 4/5 inch. Cubby is ~4.25 wide. Could probably do some cutting, or maybe even a mounting plate. Hmm where else could it be placed "out of the way" but easily accessible/visible?

 

That things pretty cool

 

nice, that is definatly a good thing to have.

 

As soon as I saw it I knew I wanted it, need it or not.

Rick

 

would that plug into a 93 ranger? CRAP nevermind 96 and up

 

No, OBDII which is like 1995 & newer Ranger.

Snazzy! It just hooks up into the OBDII port?

How much did that thing run you?

 

if mine does not have a OBDII port,what does it have?

 

I found it @ several websites for $169 plus shipping, I bought it for $164.95 including shipping.

Rick

 

I'm guessing here that yours is a OBDI.

Rick

 

crap,i was going to buy one to....lol

 

that thing u got thur is purty nifty and all technological like, it still dont beat the good ol fashioned...o crap iono...neat thing to have, nice find.

 

Me want!

Now I have a reason to start looking for a new stereo (CD reader is starting to go out on mine)... great find!

 

nice! i want one but it wouldnt work with my truck, or so the website says.

1995 Ford Ranger 3.0,4.0

 

I wonder if that would fit in that small cubby above/below the headunit. I guess I could cut it out and make it work.

 

Thats what I'm going to try & do.

"I love that thing. I think it's going to pay for itself. It's telling me that the spark is being retarded on regular gas to the point that if I change to premium I'll get better mileage." -- Calvin L. McDougal

Does that make sense or no? I guess it would depend on what kinda car he's driving. If he's supposed to put premium in and he's putting regular in his sports car, that's pretty stupid. But if his car requires regular, putting premium in it wouldn't do anything. So he may be stupid, or he may be stupid.

 

does anyone know if the mileage calculator has an adjustment for compensation of tire sizes?

 

I doubt it but I'll let you know for sure when I get it.
You probably need to get something like a Xcalibrator 2 Tuner to adjust for tire size.
