Scangauge...difficult to install?

Bill got the idea try not to drive so much, coast as much as possible(Rivs are coasting cars), Scangauges are not the greatest thing to have, it nice but not my 250$ worth. Save up for a beater?

They're only $165, shipping included, from the official website.

I've been coasting a lot, trying some pulse and glide by accelerating to about 10 over the limit and sticking it in neutral until it goes about 5-10 under, depending on who's up my ass by then.

It's not really going to matter, because your car uses OBDI; you must use an OBDI-specific scan tool. OBDII scanners and gauges won't work.

If anyone is looking into the Scanguage II for $169, be aware that it doesn't support advanced GM parameters, including the most important: KR. It also doesn't have analog inputs like the Aeroforce gauge does. Here's another example of "you get what you pay for".

It's alright, I'm not getting one. Our next car will have a fuel economy readout built in, most likely, and we don't really care about knock in our Saturns. They're little, 87-burning 4-bangers.
