Default computer trouble

I have a 95 f150 5.0 5 speed I was wondering if the computer out of a 91 f150 5.0 5 speed would interchange?

What are you trying to do? If you're putting a '91 motor in your '95 truck then it will run fine with your computer and wiring harness.

My 95 f150 truck originally had a 6 cylinder in it that blew head gasket. So I picked up a 91 302 and put a 95 harness on it and I already had a 91 302 computer so I was wondering if it will start with The 91 computer before I go out an buy a $250 computer.

I would think not but you might as well try it first.

Yeah.. I know the 91 firing order is different than the 95. Would this screw with the fuel injectors pulsing at the wrong time

You need to change the wiring on those injectors.

Not to totally ignore the question, but I need to know if you bought the frame rail engine mounts? I didn't know I needed to do this when I tried to do my swap.

The 91 computer is a batch fire injection. It will shoot one bank and then the other. A 95 computer should be a sequential injection. That would be why you want to check your injector harness.
