I guess what I really need is something whose speed is triggered by the fuel injector pulses as soon as I turn off the power to the fuel injectors. Something that pretends to be an engine based on the fuel the computer
thinks it's feeding the engine. I'll need to do some diagnostics to determine the relative timing between the FI pulses and the tach signal, and then whip something up to fake this out.
