Wow!

I’m getting hopeful that the GW Engine Management system will have a OBD2 capability. Anyone out there try using a scanner and info reader on that device yet? And, does GW have a recommended reader?

Looking forward to finding a usable iPhone app for that! It could certainly help me keep track of the engine and possibly trouble shoot in the future.
