I came across a web site that has a number of computer programs that appear to run on a laptop to monitor all aspects of the EEC-IV in realtime, not just dump codes. However I could not find a contact link to ask further questions.
If someone has/or has used this type of software:
1) Is there a special cable to link the car to the laptop or is a special daughter board in the laptop required?
2) If a cable link, does it use USB, Serial Port, other?
3) Where does it connect on the car -- underhood test plug to obtain codes or is a breakout box needed which taps into the EEC-IV?
Any other input appreciated.
I believe Cougar5.0 has used software like this before. You could also poke around SBFtech.com
subscribing......also interested
I have seen similar things with mustang builds, check out the mustang sites and i'm sure you could find information on it. generally I would think all you would need is a serial port, although usb is the new favorite.
