Title: Computer Question
Post by: jpc647 on March 02, 2008, 05:32:34 PM
Does anyone know what computer system, if any our 1987-1988 thunderbird have(obdII, obdI). etc. I recently met a kid with a vw who pirated a complete engine diagnostic setup(were you can see rpms, change all sots of settings like fuel air mixture and rmp limits). I was hoping to do the same for our cars. I dont know if this is possible tho. Anyone have any ideas?

all you need is a paper clip and if you want a test light to see codes.

Seeing the stoich is another ball game.

Our cars are OBD .5... LOL...  OBD-I in my opinion are the EEC-IV systems that can also give engine temp, TPS voltage, etc when connected to a scanner(these are the three digit code systems)... EEC-V systems are OBD-II...

Working at autozone i came across cars with "OBD 0".  Never heard  a ford called that though.
