Scan Gauge II

I have one. Have had it for probably 6 months so far. Great for the cheap price I paid for it (really really really good deal). I have never done much with the fuel consumption option. It is horribly inaccurate, but I just need to calibrate it. It is great to have all the guages and everything. Works wonderfully. -

The short 5th on the '99 OBW drives me nuts, running 3k RPMs at 65, in my legacy I'm spinning 3k at 70. -

Does the 2001 have the really short 5th gear like on the '99 outback? -

I made a 1000 mile round trip road trip last weekend, and averaged 34mpg. Driving between 75 and 80 most of the time -
When you passed today my mouth just dropped and I said WOW... haha. My little sister asked me "who were you waving to in the weird car?"

Yes, it would sound like it doesn't have any compression. Turn over a bit faster. But since your engine is non-interference the pistons and valves will never come into contact. So you won't hear any nasty noises if your timing belt breaks. -
I used to think it was only a 12 gallon tank. Because when the light came on I'd fill up within a few miles. And it would only take about 12 gal. Then one day I was in the middle of nowhere kinda lost and out of gas. The light came on, and all I could think was that I was screwed. Finally made it to a gas station and filled up with 15.6 gal. Read the manual and found out it is a 15.9 gal tank.
