Just wondering where you where getting your VSS signal from. The only reason I ask is I am about to install one in a 95 F-150 and when I was going over the wiring I noticed two separate places to get it. Raw from the sensor or VSS after it connects to the dash. (i.e. I have two wire from the sensor into the dash then VSS signal out to cruise control.) (Was wondering if the PSOM cleans up the signal at all.)

So just wondering where did you tap your VSS from, the sensor / cruise control / PSOM, Also your injector feed, did you get it from the injector rail or right at the computer?

I would say the cruise control wire is the best place to get the signal. The one coming off the vss might be an AC signal or noisy and the PSOM module probably cleans it up.

As far as injectors whatever is easiest to get to is best

I got everyting from the engine computer plug on my ranger. The 12V wasn't good enough and I ended up having to re-flash my board. I now run power from the fused cig lighter spot on the fuse box.
