It's got the same alternator (65 A vs 90 maybe?) and the ECU
corresponds fairly well to the 1.9l I suspect.  It would be good to
have if you've got the time and inclination.  Not a hurry, this has
been hanging fire for a long time.

I've got a 465 with the Vpos fried on one channel (the one that
didn't break 15 years ago, should have done both when they were still
selling parts), and a Philips that starts off bright and fades about
the time it's warmed up and stable.  And a little handheld digital
which is what I've been using on the road to watch this stuff.  Now
that I have the little guy I'm back actively looking for a bad ground
or whatever.

Back when I was looking at B+ with the Tek, I remember checking the
Toyota and finding similar sort of hash there, but a lot lower
amplitude.  That's back in the memory pit now, have to do it again.

Thanks,
d
