I'm working on the same thing (on the fly Hydrogen) and from what I
also understand the O2 sensors aren't smart enough to know your
burning something clean. To bad we can't just rewrite the ECU hardware
code and emulate it in FB and have the best of both worlds. Actually,
the world, probably would be ours if we could do exactly that.

Hey, maybe we could just hook up our iPhone to the O2 sensor output,
modify it with the neat app we just built using the iPhone SDK and
send the modified signals to the ECU. Then we could let "MobilMe"
"push" the information to the "Data Logger" application we wrote using
FB for our laptops.

If it sounds impossible so did writing a application that would
convert FB to C.

P.S. I understand that there are little black boxes that tweak the O2
output for use with Hydrogen.
