[V8] FROM THE SOUTH OF THE CONTINENT AGAIN

[leov8 at fibertel.com.ar]

In my V8, every function of this computer works. Only "miles to empty" starts blinking on 30, then 25 then 20 and then "E" and then, it jumps to +/- 685) and starts dropping fast until after a while starts showing more proper values again. Who knows!!! perhaps after I fix the IC this function will work again.
I will post the results.

By the way!! here in Buenos Aires    RON 86 to 92  -  RON 92 to 96  -  RON 97,5 & up
             up to               Argentinian -------   $1,95 / liter -       $2.21/ liter         $2,34 / liter
                                          u$s                        0,62     "               0,70    "               0,74     "
1 US Gallon = 3.79 liter                               2,35 / Gal            2,65 / Gal           2,81 / Gal
....... but who knows how long this will last. Prices are controlled by the government and sometimes is hard to find gas.
