So I'm an early amateur of electrónics, but many years of professional software development....
I know there are several electronics experts on the board, I was hoping someone knows the feasibility of this...
If i place an opto isolator in parallel with a fuel injector, in order to examine and log that activity with a control board, such as an Arduino... Will the load placed by the Opto isolator on the circuit cause any changes in the fuel delivery on that injector?
Something like this?
I don't want to break anything, but it would be a very neat way to gather fuel usage information along with rpm.
Any thoughts?
