    Pinout for Microsquirt

    I have a 1988 Mustang and I’m needing assistance with some rewiring of the connector for the Microsquirt harness. Some of the pins came out of the connector on the harness side, not computer side. The harness side connector’s pin holes are too big I think which caused the pins to not be aligned...

    I have a few questions about my ‘90 fox

    I have a 1990 foxbody that I got handed down to me and it’s been sitting for over 10 years and I need help. I’m going to drain all the fluids out of the car first and my first question is to drain the gas can I just funnel it out or do I have to drop the tank and drain it out that way.
