My MFA works perfectly apart from MPG ....

... which always shows 99.9.  Probably something trivial, but what?  There might be a thread about this already, but I can't find it.

There's a vacuum pipe to it.  It that connected?

Mine is the same, I think its the clocks, if somthing else breaks i will remove them and have a look. Until then i will leave, could probably do more harm than good by just removing them, but all the vac pipes are ok  :huh:

Could be a leak on the vacuum, or the vacuum unit is duff on the clocks...

If you disconnect the vac pipe whilst car is running you should hear it blowing..
