I have a 1989 mustang 4cyl. coupe and a 1991 computer and harness. Can someone tell me what I have to change in the harness to make this work?

biggest change to fox wiring was 1990. Colors, plug locations, physically plug differences. The two major year spans (87-89 and 90-93) don’t interchange easily.

You would have an easier time finding an 87-89 engine harness, easiest time finding an 89 harness.
