    I got my scangauge, but I haven't mounted it permanently yet.
    Pretty cool, happy to be monitoring useful information.

    2 Quick questions:

    Other than IGN and coolant temp, what else should I pay attention to?
    How do I prevent it from powering down during a glide? It's inconvenient restarting it 40 or 50 times during my drive.

    You must set the Fuel Type to Hybrid (Home > More > Setup > Fuel > Type). If you left it on default Gas it will shut off when the engine shuts off.

    I use TPS, especially on the highway. RPM is good to know when the care is in the efficientcy range and when it actually shuts off. I use MPG too because the MFD doesn't go over 99.9 MPG.
