IF THE ENGINE LIGHT WORKS--AND IS ON

YOU MAY HAVE COMPUTER CODES THAT MIGHT DIRECT YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION......SAVE ON THE GUESSING UNTIL YOUR BUILT IN RESOURCES RUN OUT....GUESSING MAY BE EXPENSIVE, AND ELECTRICAL PARTS ARE NON-RETURNABLE

REMEMBER....THIS IS OBD I, AND POPULAR AUTO PARTS STORES MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RETRIEVE YOUR CODES, THEY MAY, HOWEVER HAVE A FORD OBD I READER FOR SALE.....IF YOUR RIG IS A KEEPER, MIGHT BE WORTH THE $$$

I WENT INTO ADVANCE AUTO ONLINE----THIS WAS THE 1ST TO CATCH MY EYE, THERE WERE 4 PAGES OF SCANNERS....REMEMBER FORD OBD I, IS YOU

KEEP US POSTED ON YOUR PROGRESS
