1993 GT automatic changed to 5spd - computer question

I would look elsewhere.

Good luck.

I have an auto computer and a T5 and did nothing to change it, and would not call my car sluggish by any means. I agree with Hissin, look elsewhere.

Agreed with 25thmustang. I also have an auto computer and did nothing to it. Works like a charm.

The A9P is actually more aggressive in spark than the A9l - 26* vs. 30.8* for the A9P at WOT max RPMs.

Dump the codes and see what the computer says is wrong…

Here's the link to dump the computer codes with only a jumper wire or paper clip and the check engine light, or test light or voltmeter. I’ve used it for years, and it works great.

OR

IF your car is an 86-88 stang, you'll have to use the test lamp or voltmeter method. There is no functional check engine light on the 86-88's except possibly the Cali Mass Air cars.

Codes have different answers if the engine is running from the answers that it has when the engine isn't running. It helps a lot to know if you had the engine running when you ran the test.

Trouble codes are either 2 digit or 3 digit, there are no cars that use both 2 digit codes and 3 digit codes.

For those who are intimidated by all the wires & connections, see http://www.actron.com/product_detail.php?pid=16153 for what a typical hand scanner looks like. Normal retail price is about $30 or so at AutoZone or Walmart.

Or for a nicer scanner see http://www.midwayautosupply.com/detailedproductdescription.asp?3829 – It has a 3 digit LCD display so that you don’t have to count flashes or beeps.. Cost is $35.

30.8??? where did you find this info , my A9L throws about 21-22 degrees advance and my buddies A9P does throw more degrees timing in it but its about 25-26 degrees.....I have checked them both myself with a good timing light .....

A computer for an AOD used with a T5 transmission should have no issues. However, a computer for a T5 will not work properly with an AOD. Good luck!
