« on: Mar 16, 2008, 02:51:25 PM »
  I have an 85 x-cab yota I'm getting ready to swap my auto for a 5 speed with marlins dual ultimate, I was wondering if I need to change the computer to one out of manual truck or if it wont cause me any problems..Or if there are any other problems I should be aware of. Thanks.. :bowdown:

I believe you do... i will try and pass the link to this thread, but i am pretty sure you have to swap to a manual computer because they read differently

I believe the automatic tranny has it's own seperate computer.

No, you don`t need to replace the computer, you just need to jump the neutral plug to get it to start.
