  Probably something good for the FAQ. How's it coming along, BTW?

  OBD stands for "On Board Diagnostics" which basically means sensors on
everything watching for oxygen levels in the exhaust, etc. etc. I don't
know everything that is monitored, but I think its quite a bit.
OBDII is just the second "version" of OBD.

  Theres a bit of OBD information, history, etc. in an article on the
DML Home Page about the effects of modifications on OBD-II vehicles. The
URL is:
