Do not try to use an '88 harness on a '91, they do not match at the bulk head.
Try to get a '90-'92 harness and computer your sustem will work with it by leaving off the 9th injector.

even tho 90-92 harness is set up for SD map sensor system and what I have is a MAF style setup? Sensors are the same?

Going to pick n pull today to see if they have what I need.
Thanks
