Ferrari Mailing List: Re: electrical short on '81 308 GTSi

[Doug and Terri Anderson (dnt]

Michel - I fired the proof reader - the sentence  "I know - you are OBD II 
but I just wanted to set the tone."  Should, of course, had read - NOT OBD

Everyone knows that didn't happen for US delivered cars until 1996.

Onward
