'90/T1/Caravan Underhood Computer = '90/T1/Daytona Computer?

Both engines are 2.5's, so I'm wondering if a computer from a '90 Turbo Caravan could be used in a '90 Daytona if need be.

Thanks ahead of time.

It should work fine. There's only slight cal differences, but not a problem. The only thing might be the ccd bus. The traveller (if the car has one) may not work because some of the SBEC's didn't have the chip for it. But it will still run fine. I've done this in a jam before......

Yep, it will work but the cases are different so it won't quite fit properly, you might have to cut off the inlet and outlet snorkels for it to fit.

You can put the Caravan inards in the Daytona case, thats what I did on my 90 Spirit ES. My buttometer told me the Caravan computer had a little more power than the Spirit cal. Plus I liked the backfiring apon deceleration since it was an automatic cal and my Spirit is a 5spd.

The Caravan's case is longer on the inlet snout. That's all I got.

That only works if the top piece is gone, if the bottom unit is fubured, its glued to the case.

I always "pop" them out of the cases. You have to be able to solder the socket in there somehow..........

Hmmmmmmmm, got me thinking now. Could have sworn the lower piece was glued to the case.

I twisted one too hard once and it woulden't work on my test harness anymore. I'm more patient with getting them apart these days........

[TopDollar69]

I sort of twist the case and pull on the big plug, it works, but be careful like Jerry said.

Interesting, I guess thats why I never tried to get it out, didn't want to break anything.
