no problem in curiosity... ( I've seen lots of cats
, so we can spare a few here and there )
I wouldn't bet that it would be all GM cars in the general time frame, but at least we know for the Fiero that is the Case (well might be nice to check out say the 85-87 L4 ECM to be sure)..
I wouldn't put it past them to have used the logic elsewhere, maybe only V6 and V8 ECMs had a removable CALPAK,
IIRC the later V8 Fbody's had them integrated into the "PROM" (the special looking prom was longer ) from maybe 86 up..
I have no way, outside of opening many ECMs to know for sure (maybe when I retire )
When I had the 84 and 88 ECMs open, I wondered where the "limp home" data is stored... It has to be in there somewhere. its just not removable.
Bits,bytes and nibbles stored here and there OMG what is the world coming too!
