[Diy_efi] Limp Mode

[Bill Washington]

Jeff,
	Here in Aus some early digital injection cars had a "FEATURE" that if the the 
battery was disconnected it always went to 'Limp home' mode - they had to be 
taken to a dealer to 'fix' them - I have not owned such a vehicle, but a friend 
did! - It was most "inconvenient" when the battery died and had to be replaced 
out in the 'bush' several hundred kilometers from the nearest 'dealer'....
