Smarty and the Overhead MPG read out.

[JasonCzerak]

Does this infact make this read out more accurate?



I've noticed that my MPG readout went from 24 to 20 (more accurate).

Mine hasn't changed. Still reads about 1-2 mpg high in mixed driving and right on for all highway.

Mine went from 22 to 19, so maybe it does? I actually avg. about 18.

I have found without the Smarty my overhead reads higher than hand calculated by 1 to 2 MPG. However, I have a Transfer Flow auxiliary tank and have found when I use more than what would be normal for a OEM tank the MPG really gets weird. Who knows with the added fuel capacity how the overhead will react with the Smarty. I guess bottom line the overhead is wrong most of the time so hand calculated is the only true reading Smarty no matter and the overhead is an estimate at best.

You guys are really lucky then. Right now my truck says that it is getting 35 m. p. g. It is always way off. It happened right after the Smarty was on the truck and even now when its not on the truck it reads way off. I sent Marco an e-mail about it, but I ghink he was on vacation. The guy who replied was not very fluent in English and neither am I!! So I think something might have got lost in translation.

Mine works pretty good. I have verified the speed against a GPS and set my tire height. Removed the Super Lift True speed two weeks ago and set the Smarty for 37" and checked it at 60 MPH. I'm pleased with the accuracy reading 1 MPG less than hand calculated.
