Body Damage is Cool
You know how much i would give to be able to go over 80? Thatd be so sweet. Only time i was able to get it to 80 was actually yesterday....going downhill....with a tailwind.
Jeez...the luxury of speed and power....

My SOHC 3.2L Trooper pulled 3140 pounds of 5x8 enclosed trailer with the cruise control set >80mph on several occassions--on level ground, but definitely not with a headwind.

Got a ticket in the old trooper here is south carolina going 95 down the interstate. Mr. State Trooper did not have a sense of humor at all. It'll go that fast but I promise...The 2G Troopers do not like it.

shoot, with the stock tires and slight downward grade, hitting 100 was gravy. after bigger meats and a steep downward angle and tailwind, just 80 gets mighty hairy <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />

back on topic, can you tell us more about your rig, ie, what trim, options, etc?

FWIW, I've got one, too... I have no idea what it does, but when I routed the Ford EFI through there I needed to relocate it a bit. I left it plugged in, since I had no idea what it did. The vehicle in question at my end is a 1990 Amigo that had a 2.6 4ZE1.
I retract my former comment -- I was thinking of a smallish black box on the passenger side, behind the front speaker. I pulled mine out and looked at it -- apparently in the near past, I labeled it "buzzer." It has seven wires leading into it, FWIW.

It's a base model, no power locks, no cruise, no intermittent wipers, no time travel option. It has some markings on it - I'll have to take a look. I looked for info on the web. A VSSB or DRAC (digital ratio adapter or something) was used on S-10s. I've got another issue now - I cracked the threaded part that the oil pressure switch screws into and need to replace the offset filter adapter.

troopers CAN travel in time! the only problem is they only go forward. For example - the journey from Phoenix to Fresno should only take about 11 hours.... but last time I did it in my Trooper, nearly 17 hours had passed by the time I got there! BAM! 6 hours into the future!

I have looked over several publication's wiring diagrams and have not seen this combination of wire colors (even tho' some are obscured in the photo)going to one location. The box is definately of Japanese origin (their tin alloy), as is the connector. Yellow colored insulation USUALLY denotes circuits intended for instruments. The black/red is noted as grounding circuit for the ECM and diagnostic connector and that light green/yellow could be for the vacuum switching valve for the fuel press regulator.
My guess is that this box is the main relay with a timer for the warning lamps...Cal
