need help and info. *creative problem* 700

I think i rember seeing some one on here telling how to make a code reader for this car but i can't seem to find it. so if any one can let me know where to find that info or E mail it to me that would be great also here is a list of other questions
4 Cyl TI 4 speed manual with 5 as OD nearly 300,000 miles

some times when the car isent wormed up i cant seem to get the OD to work i hit it and it says it's in 5th and if you let off the gas the RPM's fall. but it's still in 4th any ideas?

also i rember some one posting on how to build an Air/Fuel read out useing LEDs and now that i have my new car i want to build that.

also has any one turned there turbo up to 12-14 LBS? i have a blow off valve but around 12-15 lbs the car seems to lurch slightly but i'm not shure if it's the car or just wind or what.

thanks in advance guys

Your overdrive needs to have the o-rings replaced, especially on the actuatting pistons. See the 700/900 FAQ.

Code readers don't exist, since the system is manual. See the 700/900 FAQ for information on codes and diagnostics. More information there on overdrives as well.

Thanks very much guys.
as for the air fuel ratio meter i found how to build one and it looks pretty neat.
i was also thinking just for fun of connecting LEDs with a 750 ohm resistor
to each of my injectors. then running them inside into a switch blank not that it would do Any good but it might look kind of neat.
as for the *Code reader* i should have made that more clear. what do i need to do to build some thing to get the blink or flash codes i assume some sort of led set up... and ....? plus i'm unshure of what pin to plug it in to... maby if i stay up till 7 am today i'll figure it out but if some one could give me a schematic or point me to a URL that would be Great.


Thanks , Gary
