With all the sensors on the engine, you think someone would be able to come up with some software that would let you pinpoint problem areas. Just thinking out loud here, as I know absoulutely nothing about this sort of thing.

I posted the information in response to your initial question. Quote
“ I often see them with a laptop computer hooked up to the car” Some of the shops in the links offer software that converts the diagnostic codes into a text,graphic images or graphs, Just saves counting flashes from the ecu and writing them down. Unfortunately the Supra ecu only outputs OBD 1 codes not OBD II so I doubt if we could get any more information than we do with our paper clips. As I said I thought It would be of interest.
