Hi,

Ive got a 1994 Sunbird. Ive bought the OBD1 cable and have had some success getting it to connect to the ECM with EFILIVE v4.

However there are no "pre-made" vehicle definitions for my car. I am interested in creating my own, but need help with the first initial steps.
The car is a 2.0L VIN:H

Any suggestions where to start?
