Post OBD2 data recording cheep

I just installed an OBD program from www.obd-2.com This thing works great. It will continuiously record 30 or so data streams for later playback. rpm/temp/air temp/rpm/O2 mixture.... The data cable is around $150 the software is free for download. Way Cool

I was told that the L has a knock sensor but Ford disconected it. The tires were sending a sound thru the chassis that was being heard by the sensor as knock. The other thing that appears to be missing is manifold pressure. Does anyone know if there is a MAP sensor on an L to read boost? It does read the MAP on my GM van.

Does anyone know what is a good full power reading for voltage on the o2 sensors? It jumps all over at cruse but runs around .9V on the power. Is that about normal?

Check out http://www.gadgetseller.com/gauges/
see FAQ and AF gauges 101
