SAE J1850 is a hardware specification for a single or double wire automotive 
bus.  It is a part of OBD-II (On Board Diagnostics).  J1850 specifies how 
information packets are placed on the wire, but I don't think it specifies 
what is in the packets.  But OBD does, and it will be here soon.

I would be *very* interested in the ALDL stuff from '89, if it is the fast 
data rate stuff and not the slow.  Is it proprietary?  And if so, how did you 
get ahold of it?
