I would be grateful if you could do that. I do not see a file out there already. What resources do you use to put the file together? I am likely to need others as my project progresses. I am an Engineer and have a computer background but am new to this stuff.

Getting that file was a huge help. Unfortunately I made no progress getting datalogging on the engine. I went through many of the files and A156AM seemed to match the description of the car the best (based on the application heading). I can't seem to get TunerProRT to connect. I tested the Moates Xtreme-ALDL and that passes until I plug the cable into the car, then further tests fail. TunerProRT is set to use plug-in, COM5 which matches port/USB configurations. I got data using $5B5 but the data was garbled (speed mis-match, frame shift error or the like). I will look through the rest of the files but I suspect I am stuck for the moment unless the sages of this forum have some guidance.
Thanks!

Can't find anything I need for this car. Sadly, I have two of them I need to test some equipment with so I have to get this done from scratch. From what I read I need a dissasembly of the ECM prom to build an adequate XDF and ADX file. Can I get an image of my PROM through the ALDL connection or do I need to buy more hardware?

Thanks so much! I will try this file now. I think A156 looks more like what I need, but what's in a name. The A156 file is just a stub too, so it does not get me where I need to be.
I am trying to get engine telemetry before making a change to the fuel system. I expect to have to retune, but that is beyond the scope of my current efforts. I want to see what it looks like before we break it, looking for O2 data, injector timing & other data. My only goal now is to get the car running with our modifications. Fixing will come later, so just need ADX. I am hoping not to spend on burning until after this initial test.

Works! Collecting basic data at this very moment. Is there a similar ADS file I can use to grab injector and O2 data? I should do it because I may have MANY more to do.

LOL!
Remember that AD campaign "This is not your father's Oldsmobile"? This car predates that slogan and is indeed my father's Oldsmobile. No in-dash CRT on this old baby. This car is good for nothing but trips to the supermarket and testing new devices (he he).
I tried adding some counters based on offset values from similar engines but not getting desired information (all 0.0's). I think I need to know more about what the car is spitting back to me. Is it time to buy a shop manual? Haynes has nothing about ECM stuff. Is there any source for what may be in this data stream?
