Maybe the cover page is different? ;^)\
I too had wondered about the various versions of Digifant and names
given to them. At the risk of going somewhat OT.....
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digifant_Engine_Management_system
"History
Digifant was introduced in 1986 on the 2.1 litre Volkswagen Type 2
(T3) (Vanagon in the US) engine. This system combined digital fuel
control as used in the earlier Digi-Jet systems with a new digital
ignition system. The combination of fuel injection control and
ignition control is the reason for the name "Digifant II" on the first
version produced. ......."
Not saying this is the gospel and I"m sure this has been discussed in
the archives somewhere....
