1984 Chrysler Fifth Avenue Question

I have a 1984 Chrysler Fifth Avenue that I believe the "Electronic Fuel Control Module" is defective. This is the module mounted to the air cleaner. When looking around the internet I do not see the exact phrase "Electronic Fuel Control Module". (that is what it says directly on the module) I see ECM, ECU, Control Engine Module, Computer, etc.... Does anyone know what I really want?

A perfect example is at the url below:

Look at the last items at the bottom of the left column.

Any help would be appreciated.

Its the engine control module.

Most people don't replace those, they put on an older Chrysler electronic ignition system and a non-feedback carburetor, but that can be a problem if you have to pass a "visual" emissions check (where they lookfor the computer to be hooked up- retrofitting will usually easily pass a tailpipe test.)

What are the symptoms? Those computers rarely fail. Its more likely that one of the sensors or a feedback solenoid in the carburetor has failed.
