Why we have to do the calculation that way (multiplying by 200/256) exactly? Isn't the voltage corresponding to a value from the VQ translation table (0-65535)?

Good question. Datascan thinks (I'm guessing) that the 16bit value in the 2 consult registers is the analog to digital conversion of the raw O2 sensor voltage, and will probably divide it by 200 to display it as a voltage. ie; If Datascan shows 8.36V, then the actual 16bit value is 8.36*200 = 1672. Since the value in the registers is total TP (not the value from the VQ table), that value must be divided by 256 (1672/256=6) to get the load TP=6 used in the fuel and timing maps.

Cheers,
Dave
