Re: [Amc-list] Fuel Injection story on a Jeep



Used to be a few companies out there other than Howell that would work a harness or ecu prom and you could buy your own stuff.
  IIRC, Howell themselves used to sell bits and pieces, so anyone with a pull a part and some time can scrounge most of it themselves.
  I only referenced Howell as they are easy to locate and read up on.
