I am new to EFILive, and am looking for help from people that know how to do things as I am somewhat (very) lost.

I want to monitor all available serial data from the OBD I computer in a few different cars, both 160 baud and 8192 baud. I have a simple cable I made myself. I have been using it in a 1986 LeSabre 3.8 and a 1991 Cutlass 3300 using either freescan or winaldl to read the data, but those programs have limited compatability.

I want to monitor data from the following cars:
1986 Buick LeSabre
1989 Buick Electra PA
1991 Buick Regal
1991 Olds Ciera
1994 Buick Park Avenue (wierd aldl 16 pin OBD I interface - data on pin 9)

I'm sure once I learn how to get data from one I should be able to figure out the rest. The critical car is the 1986 LeSabre at the moment, but help with the 1994 PA would be appreciated. I also have project plans to convert the 1986 computer and associated electronics to something that has a 8192 baud interface, and being able to monitor the changes I shouldn't make are a necessity.
