Yeah, at best I think you would see a subset implementation that wouldn't get you much in return. If you got really lucky the manufacturer may have implemented parts of the OBDII protocol in advance of the 1996 deadline, but it's hit or miss.

For pre-OBDII cars with fuel-injection, the MPGuino is the way to go.
