      Default '86 T-Bird 3.8 CFI?

      Hey the '86 T-Bird 3.8 was SEFI wasn't it?
      I know a guy saying he just got one that was carb'd
      I could see him thinking that if it was a CFI
      But I thought by '86 all Ford Passcars were SEFI
      Anybody know for sure?
      Thanks

      The T-Bird had the same 3.8 as the Mustang, Capri, LTD, etc so it should be CFI. Only the 5.0 and the 2.3 Turbo had SEFI in 86

      IIRC, 87 was the year that all Ford engines in passinger cars and truck were SEFI.
