Fuel Injection & Electronic Engine Control: 1982 through 2001 by Charles O. Probst
The book begins with a survey of the different fuel injection systems
used in these cars: Throttle Body Injection (TBI), Multiport Fuel Injection
(MFI), and Sequential Fuel Injection (SFI). Probst covers the reasons behind
J1930 terminology (electrical/electronic systems diagnostic terms, definitions,
abbreviations and acronyms) and the engine management concept of Open Loop
and Closed Loop Operation. In addition, oxygen sensor and heated oxygen
sensor operation, traction control, Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR), Air
Injection (AIR), catalytic converters, evaporative controls, octane and
fuel volatility are among the many thoroughly covered topics.
Probst's treatment of On-Board Diagnostics (OBD and OBD II) involves
topics such as misfire detection, crankshaft position sensor operation,
Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor design, Electronic Spark Control (ESC), and
Central Processing Unit (CPU).
No other book comes close in providing this much detailed, proven information,
with 380 pages including 112 pages of model-specific wiring diagrams, trouble
codes, and test specifications along with hundreds of photos and illustrations.

How
to Tune & Modify Chevrolet TPI Engines by Jason Scott (Introduction)
Chevrolet TPI (tuned port injection) engines debuted on the Corvette
in 1985. Since then, GM has used them in the Camaro and Firebird, and they
have become wildly popular with hot rodders, street-machine builders, and
sport-truck fans. Modification issues addressed here include: rebuilding
and specifications; tools and parts sources; induction and cylinder heads;
camshafts and valvetrains; exhaust systems; electronics and ignitions.
Specific engines covered include the original TPI (305ci LB9, 350ci L98),
the 350ci LT1/LT4 ('92-'96 Vette, '93-'98 Camaro/Firebird), and the new
5.7-liter LS1 ('97-up Vette, '98-up Camaro/Firebird). A vast aftermarket
industry has sprung up offering performance parts for virtually every aspect
of the TPI engine. This book details those options and chronicles the hop-up
of a "case-study" engine. Amazon.com Paperback - 160 pages
