Attached are the photos of the Moates Boards.
Sorry about the shit picture quality but my phone won't focus properly for some reason.

They are pretty much f3's that solder in place of the factory EPROM.
Moates also told me they can only be used on EEC-IV.
I think Moates supplied them to an ECU remanufacturer.
I never liked the way things hung out of the J3 port as a permanent setup, and last year had a customer/mate who I converted his F150 to A9L, and he did not like the possibility of the f3 working its way off the J3 port when 4wding, so I contacted Moates about getting some.

Below is a quote from my correspondence with Moates
. They are priced the same as F3v2 chips ($75) so you can order F3v2 chips and put a note in the 'Comments' that you want the special EECIV only internal chips. They do NOT work for 96+ applications.

To program them, there is a custom adapter required. $10. You can order a HDR1 (same price) and put a note that in the 'Comments' that you are after the custom EECIV Chip adapter, not the HDR1.

To program them, a BURN2 with custom firmware is required - $85. If you use your BURN1 for programming other chips, it would be a good idea to have a second programmer because the unique firmware required won't program "normal" chips.
I have to say Moates have always been very helpful over the years, going back to 2008 when I was using an Ostrich, the first one I bought was faulty they replaced it no questions asked.
Then the first QH I had stopped communicating to the PC, again they replaced it with a new one, at the same time they replaced my second one due to the battery troubles.
In this regard the customer service was bloody great, what has happened in the last week is weird, as others have said there must be more to the story.

Re: MOATES -- FYI

Would you part with one? Do you know if the Burn2 just had a special pigtail to connect it or if there was something more custom done to it?
Sorry mate I won't part with them. I bought enough to cover myself, my brother and a mate, with a couple of spare.
The Brn2 has custom firmware (FIRMWARE 5.70 CARDONATOR).
It has an adaptor that goes between the Burn2 and the chip.
I will post some photos later on.

It is a shame that they have closed, it would have been nice if we had a warning, so we could have copied the documentation for the use of the equipment, given that they have also closed all the documentation down as well. That lacks respect for the customers who have supported them over the years.

Re: MOATES -- FYI

Top photo was a Moates product not available to the public. I managed to purchase 8 of them last year. A custom Burn2 was also required to program them.

1989 - 1991 Thunderbird SC Injectors.

I am trying to work out what injectors were on an L0E1/C0S SC Thunderbird.
I have 3 different numbers all are Bosch all show different flow rates, but not that different.
They are:
0 280 150 911 30lb
0 280 150 912 30.55lb
0 280 150 945 28.55lb

Did Ford mix and match sets (6 of the same number) depending on availability and use adaptive learning to compensate for different sets of injectors?

Thanks.
