I have a wiring diagram for an 84 Cougar/Thuderbird on my computer (them being the same wiring harnesses in both cars). Its all 3 motors (2.3 TC, 3.8 and 5.0) in one diagram but its better then the one off the store shelf. My dads is an 86 TBI but due to my scanner not wanting to work, I cant copy it to my computer.
Got copies of them from my local public library.
Yes I am able to send the pictures of the 84 one.
But its very simple to set-up the wiring. The TFI plug has 6 wires, 3 going to the computer, 3 going into the driverside firewall, has a plug. Attach the 3 out of the rangers firewall to the ones on the 3.8 liter TFI plug respectily where they came off the rangers TFI plug (we spliced and solidered ours on). Next you need to be able to power the coil. 12volt key on for that one.
As for the sensor wires, I de-tangled them from the ranger wiring harness and just plugged them back onto the sensors and all those wires are hooked to a connector that goes into the driverside firewall.
As for the exhaust gas emissions, mine arent hooked up, but my dads are. Whether his work or not I'm not sure but now when we drive his, white staem smoke comes out (cooler exhuast gases) while it warms up , something that it only did in the winter, now does in the warm weather. This tells me that the carb. set-up wasnt working and now the air pump thing is being used. As for mine runs fine without it all hooked up.
