As far as I know its only a vacuum gauge with mpg markings ( higher vac=lower mpg?) Just need to connect it into intake

i think he means the digital ones like those used in the explorers.

i believe the computer that calculates the MPG is part of the body control module....i wouldnt even want to think of the wiring fiasco it'd be to adapt it to a different vehicle.

a vacuum gauge works for obtaining the best fuel economy...it just doesnt give you actual MPG figures.
