Personally, I'd recommend shutting it off entirely.  We've found that it's 
somewhat tough to transition in/out of quasi-mode and maintain consistent 
AFRs.

Depends on what injectors you use, but there's really no need for the 
every-other arrangement. It's possible that TBI injectors would be an 
exception to this.  We've run #65 high-z with no pulse-width problems.

Simpler is good, and it seems like the fewer moving parts that the $58/9 
code has, the better it runs.

Phew! That's great news. :-)

It looks like, for $58, it's address $036A 'KAPLL', and the standard Sunbird
value is 0.793 ms.

Many thanks Ryan,

Robin
