yeah ..the pcm is located by the passenger side fender under the cowl. I think it installs somehow into the pcm.

maybe somebody else will chime in.

If you send me a email (chips@pcmforless.com) i'll send you a pdf copy of the install instructions that way you can get an idea.

Re: pcm forless???????

first you drain the blinker fluid, rotate your driveshaft, and balance your muffler

or they will send you the file and you can load the software into your pcm, providing you have the cables (which cost extra money)

or you can pay the core charge and they will send you a pcm with the tune already in it, you replace your pcm with the one they sent you adn send them back your old one and u get your core charge back minus $10.

Funny post unless of course you read he has a 93, and know that his ECM uses EPROMS.

I guess you were overfilled with fluids or wrapped around the axle when you replied to this post eh
