Precious little, from what I can gather from the Bentley manual.
What's cool is that it plugs in btw. the box & the wiring harness,
so you can test "everything" by tweaking some knobs. And they're just
plain cool. :) I've seen a couple of different varieties (Elfrink book
has pictures, I think), and there's been one for sale at each of the
last two swap meets I've been to. One was going for $25, the other $50.
Oh--I believe that at least some models allowed you to open all of
the injectors at once to do a flow/volume test. Nifty.
