Say I did pay close attention to that on going problem with many of the HCH II's not reading right when they got to 63 Miles. And then their FE Instant Gauge would reset and as I remember it would read kinda erratic.

Mine never did anything at all and reads out in .1 MPG Increments. So I hope it does not have that FE Instant readout problem. I guess it would have already been acting crazy if it did have the Problem.

Just went and read the miles on car since I went to work and back home. It is now reading 135.4, so I drove 12.9 miles today back and forth. The instant FE Gauge has not acted funny when it passed the 126 mile reading so maybe I am okey on the Instant reading thing. MPG is now at 52.3 so i dropped from 54.9 this morning to 52.3 now. I will be real interested to see what it does on a daily basis in FE, since i drive so few miles each day and in traffic.
