Does anyone have any idea where the data port or OBDII port would be for this 1996. I have looked everywhere! I cannot find either the OBDII or the old ford style connector. I am about to go crazy!

I have the 1999 model and the mechanic found mine bolted under the driver side dash. He did not reattach it but used tie straps to make it easier for me to access it in the future.

I FOUND IT! I have a 96 and it is OBD1. The EEC connector is located under the doghouse. I opened it up from the inside, looked to the upper left (drv side) and it is attached there. What a BOOGER to find. I will have to attach my OLD SCHOOL scanner tomorrow and figure out what I have going on.
Thanks everyone for your input.

Glad you found it.
