I do have a bluetooth ODB2 reader, so I should be able to get throttle position from that I am guessing. I will have to check it out. I also read about vacuum gauges for measuring load. Does anyone know if this would be available through ODB2?

I enjoyed doing this little experiment and am planning to do more as time permits. I will include some load and / or throttle position experiments.
