Glad you found out the truck is legal. Why do you need to remove the computer? Is something on the truck not working? I'm pretty sure the computer needs to be there to control the sensors. |

Re: found a computer in my glove box
well the thing is its a project truck...... bought her for dirt cheap..... no motor or tranny and im not sure if the 305 board .30 over will need the ESC...... but mine is in my glove box its loose so im assuming that it could have possibly been under the dash pad i could tell work was done down there cause there where wires for subs and possibly a CB radio.... just trying to figure out what should be done about it

Re: found a computer in my glove box
it depends if you know anybody that'll inspect it for you my '84 only needed the safety equipment working to pass, which i fixed so it would pass only to find out the guy i went to (good guy) took my word that it was and never got within 30 feet of the truck
as for what should be done... trash it its not responsible for the guages or anything, if you put a motor in it the works off an HEI and a carb its dead weight mine might it might not i don't know/care, but i do know that at that point emisions controls were not intergral like they are now.

Re: found a computer in my glove box
Like I said I took it out of mine when I put in my 454 and it works fine. The only thing is that I didn't remove all the wires and my check engine light stayed on.

Re: found a computer in my glove box
yeah see the good thing is me and my brother can both inspect the vehicle cause we are majoring in auto motives he is in his final semester at college while i am just starting my major.... but i feel i might just leave it there and maybe just hid it under the dash so i never see it again...... was just shock to see a computer in an 1980 model vehicle
