BUT, what I have done is plug in my laptop and measure the throttle sensors, they are "roughly" as you describe. In static tests it's always 100% reliable and I haven't got round to logging it while driving, largely because it's so intermittent.
Could you tell me what channels to measure, and I'll see if I can do it. I only found one test for it and that was when static. It was also just a single reading, not dual.
