PROcede - I think I'll be installing the Zetronix stuff myself. Its really straight forward. Sensor goes into the fuel return line, hook up the electronics, connect the display, and you should be good to go.

There is another step which involves running the sensor into your ecu which allows for on the spot correction for ethanol % variations. However I have no idea if this would work with the accessport.
Where do you plan on mounting your display?

Not sure yet, depends on how big the display is. Maybe on the steering column. Thought about maybe in the glove box or in the armrest area. Just check it when needed and not have it visible all the time.

I commute between Pleasanton and Fremont and always fill at the Sunol Super Stop (Bottom of the North side of the Sunol grade on 680). Usually ~$3.29 +/- .10

There's also one in Fremont at the Chevron in Stevenson near Lake Elizabeth (Paseo Padre I think?) But it's more out of the way for me, and usually more expensive.

I just received my Zeitronix's kit. It actually comes with an updated Flex Fuel Sensor that is not from GM. It's black. The actual LCD screen is SMALL, the size of a credit card at most.

Yeah apparently that announced that at Sema this year and will start marketing it next year. However, whomever buys one now will be getting the updated flex fuel sensor.
