I have lots of respect for Matt and his knowledge however it is MUCH easier to undo the bolt on the plastic retainer that holds the computer in, push UP on the computer slightly, unbolt the wiring from the bottom of the computer, unplug the harness and pull wiring aside slightly. Computer then literally will drop down and out with ease. Just another way to do it.

When it comes to locating hard to find things I'm the proverbial hound, I'm sooo gonna find me one of those Rotunda diagnostic machines,they look so cool,reading on the net i found a guy that had bought one on eBay with all the accessories for 30 bucks,lol , most people dont know what it is and being so old they think its junk, i think its a great diagnostic machine if you have one of these cars or any old Ford from the time period. On the subject of finding scarce items,OEM Heater cores for these cars are getting impossible to find,a few months ago i found one chasing a rabbit hole in a little shop in California,brand new in the box for 80 bucks,been siting in the guys shop since the early 90s, couldn't believe it, when looking for rare stuff the best advice is... dont give up,devote a hour everyday to chasing leads and you'll find it eventually, this video made me want to check my ECU, it has been in my 91 since they built it, untouched,ive been having strange issues every so often,sure enough, 2 of the capacitors are on their way out, thanks for the video man, awesome as always.

Decided to check the condition of my computer today. Thanks to this video I knew the best way to do it. It seems my blower housing has been out before though as there was only one of the 2 bolts on the bottom and it wasn't an 8mm as Matt mentioned in the video. But the computer looks good. gonna clean the blades of the blower off before i put it back in. And also going to explore the idea of retrofitting a cabin air filter for the outside air.
