    ok. Good. if you have the pigtail, it'll make it so much easier to wire this in.

        Might be some more info here: http://www.grandmarq.net/vb/showthre...adding-ECM-pin)


        I attached a pic with the pin order on these ECM's. Just look at the shape of the outline of the plug to orient it the right way.

            i disassemble the ECM connector and see the strange thing - there is a wire on pin #34 but it's not a blue/purple wire. the photo is not good but we can see a connector on pin



            or i will turn the ECM connector to 180?

              Need to turn the connector 180. Best way to get it oriented correctly is to look at the gray plastic tabs on either side of your fingers in that pic. One is closer to the edge of the plug than the other. In the diagram those tabs are under pin 42 and 60. If there are any other specific diagrams you need let me know, and I'll see if any of my books have them.

                        or 6-8 gallons for 62 miles for those of us who don't use easily converted units.

                        or about 8-10 mpg.

                        yeah... that kinda sucks.
