Perhaps you're not aware that different speedometer gears are available to

Help me understand this, Matt. You drive "less than 3 miles per cold
start" and you are blaming an MP PCM for crappy mileage???????????? Do you
really need an explanation?????
FWIW, my Dak's gas mileage improved when I installed the MP PCM. However,
I do drive it far enough at a time to get the engine warm and off the "cold
enrichment" from the PCM. :)
