Ah, I see. Can you freeze frame? That is, hit a button to capture the data at a particular point in time? If so, maybe comparing the data captured during the idle surge vs non-surge may show something? Eg. A burst of knock counts, some sensor data changing, etc?
unfortunately not for OBD 1, but it does a bunch of frames every few min's when things change (in my pic's its showing frame 0 and i have 11 frames) so i should be able to review.
thx for your help.
