I have an 88 Ranger 2.9, 4x4, Manual. I bought an engine from the "Auto Salvage" (Guy there made a point to correct me when I told my mom on the phone that I was at the junkyard.). It was supposed to be for a 92 Explorer. It had a tag that said 94 Ranger. Anyway I do have the 92 Explorer ECU. It's a manual (F27F-12A650-TC code X2X2). I've read that connecting it to an auto wiring harness would FRY my ECU. Does anyone know why that is and what I could do about it. The closest harness I can find is for a 93 automatic Explorer. I'm sure I can eliminate the extra O2 sensor wiring and correct the pin(s) for the Diagnostic link. Just worried about the auto vs. manual thing right now.
I'm sure there will be more questions as I go along.
Thanks,
PS: How different are the EVTMs wiring diagrams from what's in the Chilton's manual?
