1998 Merc Mountaineer
I just bought a 1998 Mountaineer, and it has a V8 302. I though it was stock, until I started it up. 2 owners before me, put a 1994 Mustang GT Cobra engine in it. Now, I understand the OBD situation, but he got it in there, and it works. I have a few questions.
I am getting an AIRB and an AIRD circut failure. Any ideas?

Under a load/hard acceleration the valve train rattles like a diesel.

I get a code for the EGR circut failure too.

It idles like crap, but runs great under acceleration.
Changed plugs, not wires and cap/rotor. Anybody want to give me an idea on what I should do?:salute:

I dunno, the door is off the computer compartment, so I am guessing that the computer was swapped too. They got it into the firewall harness, and from there it is the cobra motor, wireharness, and etc. I am guessing that the computer is the Cobra computer because it is giving me OBD1 codes.
