Hi all. Scott Daniel Foss made mention of this book just recently. It was buried in a thread I started but AFAIK, this is the book he referred to: http://www.haynes.com/products/productID/52 Haynes 10205 From my POV of knowing a little about Motronic 2.9, but really not nearly enough, this book provides clearly written "how and why" explanations of typical engine management systems. Moreover, it covers basic trouble shooting one should do prior to or in conjunction with trouble shooting the engine management components and shows tools used etc. I found it interesting to see just how similar the various components are throughout the different vehicle manufacturers shown. It also gives good tips. Like keeping spark plug wires at least 1" away from sensors or sensor circuit wires. IMO, a great book for someone interested in finding out more about an EFI engine. The examples seem to circle around North American made cars, but do include VW, Volvo, BMW's use of various Bosch systems. Seems like a good meat and potatoes book.
