right there is 2 odd's incase of maybe the below

 

You are doing a round trip of roughly a 1000 miles but want to know how many miles you do per tank.

 

So reset both

 

now both read 360 miles and you have to fill up.

 

So you reset just A

 

now youve done 720 miles

 

A says 360 again

B says total of 720

 

Reset A again to 0

 

 

you get where im going with this ;) im also an NA and have run mine for 3 yrs on Unleaded

There are 2 trip counters to allow you to measure two trips. e.g. reset A when you fill up, and reset B when setting off on a journey, A will then tell you how far you've gone since you filled up. B will tell you how far you've gone on your journey.

 

As for Optimax, I thought you were supposed to get better fuel efficiency on Optimax, that regular pump fuel, but I coan't comment for sure.

i now know what you mean its like finding out what you get around town then put one to 0 like leave A and put B to zero so get a rough idea how many miles motorway you done is that what it means

I do not notice much difference between optimax and standard, and find that my mpg is affected mainly by the fuel control valve under my right foot, i am sure people who fill up the n/a with optimax expect more power and hammer it more anyway, one thing for sure is that optimax does keep your engine cleaner and valves in better condition
