Don you'd be shootin' yourself in the foot to try to pull codes with a harness that's been chewed threw by rodents. It'll throw all kinds of codes about not getting readings from sensors (that could potentially be GOOD parts) because it doesn't have a good connection. I'd replace that harness and THEN pull the codes.

Well the harnes is not all garbage, i was lookin at it today at work, and there are some wires chewed bare, but still connected and wires that have been chewed threw, i cut, stripped and resoldered the wires that had been messed, up but i think there may be more messed up somewhere, which would be why i want to read the codes, see what sensors are not reading and trace their wires, BEFORE i replace anything... Once i am 100% sure that the harness is good, then i will start replacing parts....

Fair enough. Then maybe it's not as bad as I was thinking it was.

Its not as bad as i thought it was either...
Its worth a shot...
I was thinking that the removal of the EFI system would put me a step ahead on the MAF swap when i get ready to do it... I will have the harness already out to do what splicing i need.

Don for pulling codes you can use the paper clip technique. see www.fordfuelinjection.com also switching to a carb may not only eliminate the whole wiring issue but also may open up some more power and ultimately a possibility of better fuel economy. JAT on my part, however, fuel injection is pretty darn efficient and consistent.

Yea thats what i was also considering, the ease of a carb, the less clutter...
Ugh... Idk...

I've done the swap on an 88 F-150 about 6 years ago and that truck was a different animal. It did, however, look kind of naked under the hood.

alright well the particular spot that got knawed on was not to bad, got her all fixed up, still got lights, and loads of codes...
Keep tracing harness and it is all mangled...
Im goin carb, to hell with this chit...

lol good luck...
