    Did you hook the scan gauge II up? Got it working? Would be a great way to get temp and revs.

    And are those black rims on that black c I see in the Avatar pic? Very nice. After market wheels? Do we know the c's wheel offset yet?

    yeah, its working fine. is giving water temp and rpm as well as 12volt read out. plug in wrap around steering column twice velcro to dash.
    thanks about the wheel covers. habanerobomb and i both have them. it was his idea. i hate the look of the factory covers and the black wheels are just old timey stamped black. these are autozone black wheel covers complete with fake(!) chrome rim and nuts. i like the look bettter and a nice experiment i think for $40. i think it makes "shorty" look almost mean (in a nice, non threatening, benign way).

    Is there some setting that you have to set for hybrids like a fuel cutoff mode number? How do you determine that if my memory serves correct?
