ScanGauge Reported Mileage after P0306 code
I picked up a ScanGauge last week. So far, it's pretty cool.
This morning I fired up my '99 Disco after sitting idle all weekend.
Ran rough at first, and I got a flashing SES light, then steady. Read the code with ScanGauge and got P0306.
Roughness went away after just a few minutes, but since the P0306 code, the ScanGauge is reporting about 1/2 the MPG as I was seeing before the code???
Any clues why it has changed. Going by what my gas gauge is reading, it doesn't seem like I'm getting the crappy mileage its reporting.
Thanks!

'99 Disco 2 with 117k.
O2 sensors, Plugs and wires in July
Ran Seafoam through it via instructions on here in August
I usually run mid-grade or premium fuel
I have no clue how the ScanGauge gets it's fuel numbers, but I thought it curious that before the P0306 I got one reading and after I get something about 1/2 of the previous.
Thanks!

I would try a set of 8mm Magnecor wires they seem to be the best for our trucks. They are expensive at about $100 per set, but not that expensive when considering the lifetime warranty. People also use Kingsborn on the forum but I have no experience with them.
I have had my Magnecor wires on for 35,000 miles and no misfires. The are a little thicker silicone wires that take the heat well from our hot V8 engines. Well worth considering. I think they come with a lifetime warranty, only downsid is you need to order them online. Check my signature for a link. Not the cheapest price but you can price shop it through Google Shopping
Here is where I bought mine.
