I have never seen the catch code displayed on the J3 port, but Ford always has a way of surprising us. 
Here are a couple of sites that list catch codes.

Usually it falls off. It's just a sticker. If I remember right, I think it was over the J3 port. On our EEC-IVs there is a sticker covering the J3 port stating that if you remove that sticker, it voids the warranty. I was thinking it had the catch number on it as well. Or maybe it was a sticker just stuck to the side of the casing somewhere.vristang said:I have never seen the catch code displayed on the J3 port, but Ford always has a way of surprising us.

According to this PDF (page 22) it says that your number is for a 1988 Taurus 3.0. Code is 8NC.

I am not sure if that serial number that they put on them is specific to a certain computer or not though.

Sorry, I did not realize that you couldn't see the catch code.
Can you post a pic of where you are getting the numbers you have provided so far?
A pic would simplify things a great deal.
Most diagnostic computers will plug into the OBD port not directly into the computer.
How are the pins configured? A picture of this would help too.

Maybe someone can confirm that that pin pattern is the same as an A9* series?
About the only other advice I can give is to find a way fo reading the stock .bin file. A TwEECer can do this, as well as some other software/hardware combos.
Does anyone near you have this ability?
Some shops that do custom tuning may be able to help?
I would offer my Tweecer for a read, but that would be a long drive for me.
Good Luck,
jason

I think I have seen some EEC-IVs with different pin layouts than what is on an A9L.
I could be mistaken as this experience comes form touring the local wrecking yards.
I thought the early EEC-IVs were a little different though ?

This is what all EEC-IVs look like. They have all 60 pins.vristang said:I think I have seen some EEC-IVs with different pin layouts than what is on an A9L.
