What is the difference in the computers between auto or manual transmission? Will auto computer work with manual transmission?

It depends on what kind of automatic you have. The E4OD is computer controlled so the computer for it would not work on a manual.
Need more info though... What truck, year, motor, trans, 2wd 4wd, etc.

An E4OD computer will run an engine with a manual transmission, although it will turn on the check engine light because the transmission is missing. A manual transmission computer can't be used with an electronic automatic, but should work with a non-electronic automatic.
