Pull it, got a number on it...or call a Ford dealer, and give them your VIN, if your certain that the original motor is still in there

CarQuest has real good prices on Cardone re-manufactured computers. They may have to special order it from Cardone, I just did that recently, special order, about $120.-.

Pull the computer to look at the numbers on it. I also cross-reference with the calibration code listed on the door jamb. If they match then you stand a fighting chance of getting the correct one.

NAPA used to carry Stand Motor Products rebuilt computers, but lately I have heard they may not do that anymore. Stay away from anything associated with A-1 Cardone, absolute trash IMHO.
