Asynch vs Synch Injection

This helps me too and confirms as I just finished up successfully doing the
AE changes for some bigger injectors in a friends car.  It makes sense and
McGraw-Hill Tech Dictionary says it as well "Asynchronous Control: a method
of control which the time allotted for performing an operation depends on
the time actually required for the operation, rather than on a predetermined
fraction of a fixed machine cycle (engine rpms)"
