Computer swap

oharris · 07-11-2012, 09:25 AM

In an effort to intermittant problem I swapped computers between my wrecked 97 Explorer to my '97 Mountaineer. It seems to have cured the problem, but from what I can tell, The explorer has the 7-54G calibration and the mountaineer had the 6-54G calibration. Everything seems to be working fine, so how big of a deal is having the proper calibration?

Thanks in advance.

If everything works, don't sweat it. Often calibrations are very minor changes for things like shift points, emissions stuff and fuel economy. If it works it works.
