    The Acronym "ALDL" is GM specific, for "Assembly Line Diagnostic Link". This is most commonly used in reference to teh OBD1 Delco ECMs and PCMs.

    The OBD2 data port is most commonly refered to as an "OBD port", or "On Board Diagnostic port."

    The OBDII laws and PIDS are all the same for emmissions, this made repairs at shops much easier, but each manufacturer has ther own Enhanced versions as well.

    another common term for the port that came around right before OBD2 was implimented was "data link connector" (DLC).

    it's all relatively synonymous if you don't look too far into it.

    Get a spare PCM and take it apart, desolder chip, read it, solder in a Zip socket with new EEPROM. No OBDII port flashing...

    that solves up/downloads.... now to actually make sense of the calibration.... woof.

    figuring out what gigantic tables do is prettty easy, but little stuff(scalars/flags), that's the painful stuff to figure out.
