Yea, I just ordered new LCDs, because when I plugged in my laptop adapter (16V, 4.5A), it ran the blink test program just fine, but the second I plug in my LCD, the 7508 starts overheating and I have to pull the power within a second or so or things would definitely smoke. Must be a short on the LCD. I'll try to fix it later, but it wasn't backlit anyway so I've got these incoming:

So after that, I should be OK on the hardware. I still need to find that VSS hookup, but I've found a few references to it in my car's wiring diagrams - just need to translate diagram to actual harness location.

I still need to know what information about my injectors I need to know to determine my custom constants in the code. I've read through and found references to specs such as open time and duty cycle and flow rate for the injectors, but I'm quite lost. Is there some newbie information on injectors for determining what I need to know to get this project moving?
