Subject:      Re: Drivability issue revisited-intermittent stalling


I bought the harness (it also works on my '86) and couldn't stand not knowing
what it was, so I (carefully) took it apart.  What it is, is an op amp and 
some other misc parts, which together make "an active filter". (One could 
probably build it for < $10.)  I started generating a schematic, but quit 
because it didn't seem too many people were interested.
