How computer controlled is 87 Bronco

How detailed is the computer contols on an 87' 302 with EFI? Does it have a place to plug in and check codes, not that I know how to do this, but my bronco is running crappy and I have replaced the cap rotor and plugs. Roy

Yes there is. Go to kragen and get the digital reader. It's about 30$. It will tell you what to do. The bronco efi computer is very complex.

"Dang it", went to Kragen and got the reader and spent about 2 hours looking for the connecter on the Broncosaurus and then realized someone had cut the wires. I guess I'll have to find the connectors at a junk yard and replace. Thanks........Royboyz
