I just updated to 7.5.5

I want to keep manvac in inHg. Is there a way I can switch that back to inHg? All there is now is kPa and PSI.

Am I left with just putting the older version back on?

You may need to create a calculated pid in calc_pids.txt to display MANVAC in inHg.

Is the pid in question GM.MANVAC...?

Is your calc_pids.txt file the default one or have you edited it before...?

If it's the original one, I can make you one later, I'll post it here.

Copy this file to either of (whichever one you have):
My Documents\EFILive\V7.5\User Configuration
My Documents\EFILive\V7\User Configuration

Then open scantool:
in PIDs tab, select both GM.MANVAC and CALC.MANVAC;

in charts/gauges, available pids are:
CALC.MANVAC.inHg
CALC.MANVAC.psi
CALC.MANVAC.kPa

Everytime, I tried to measure something with an inch of mercury is just puddles up so I just switched to kPa. Also, I was running out of peoples' feet to cut off for measuring things with so I went with meter sticks.
