I thought the EECV had the OBD?

Hi 

I know you guys have had Ford's new FI system for a while, but it's quite
new to us in the UK.

I have it fitted to a 4-pot Ford 1300 (yup 1.3 litres) micro city car.

I need a little advice:

1) will a normal OBD II code reader diagnose all PMS faults?  -
recommendations for a PC-based diagnostic, preferably ordered over the web,
please.

2) any comments on the thing stalling, but only  after declutching following
at least 5s of overrun (throttle off).  Yes, it's a stickshift and clutch
job.  It runs OK, and starts & idles fine.  I've not looked at fault codes
yet (see above) and a warning light is not fitted.

Thanks

Andy
