cant find a ECC
No luck at the places. i even put in a request on the www.car-parts.com web site that links you to all salvage yards in the country. No one had one in stock. I put in a request in and the only replys i get is that no one has one. I would guess there are all damage from rain etc. I also called about five salvage yards all over the country no luck. I guess there are about 15 engine computers for my truck. So the odds are not good. Thanks

I got one at Autozone about 6 months ago for a 86 six. If I remember correctly, it was about $100.00 exhange. The counter man said there were a number of different part numbers. If you pull the old one out there is a parts number on a sticker. Autozone can cross-ref. that for you.
Good luck.

Just curious, but why are you replacing the computer? Ford ECMs are very reliable and rarely fail. Not to doubt you, but are you sure that's what causing the problem?

There are mild differences between the Bronco, F-series and E-series computers for the exact same combination, but the differences are extremely minimal and relate solely to timing. The Bronco has a miniscule more timing advance than the F-series, which has a hair more than the E-series. But the difference across the board is like 1.5 degrees. Nothing to sneeze at.
