I can help ya :awesomework:
I used a combination of a Haynes manual for a minivan and a couple pages I found via google. It's intricate but not that bad.wouldnt have a wiring schemetic for this year would ya![]()
extremely simple system
It gets an ignition pulse and looks at the temp and engine load and throttle opening to determine the injector on-time and it fires the injector. thats the basics.
worse case if the computer takes a dump, as long as you have ignition,you could rig a turn signal flasher to the ground side of the injector and drive it out. It would run real bad, but it would get you out.
I love stupid-simple!
