Yes, it's all part of my master plan. I intend to get rich-rich-RICH selling
replacement idle control units! Presuming I ever get around to it, whatever
design I come up with I will probably give away the schematic and
microcontroller program for it online to anyone fool enough to want to try
to build one. I figure at most I might sell a parts kit with a
pre-programmed microcontroller and a properly etched circuit board. I'm
really good a coming up with half-assed prototypes, but pretty weak on
refining designs to production quality. Whatever I come up with, the specs
will be free for all, and I'll title the web page "Please Steal This Design
and Make It Not Suck".
