Answer
You will recall that we exchanged q and a's earlier this month about your car. I am competing to be recognized as 'expert of the month' for November, and the voting ends Sunday afternoon. If you would consider giving me a vote, that would be most appreciated. Use the "Thank/rate" tab below where you will see "nomination?" and then change the 'no' to a 'yes' to give me that support. I hope things are well with you and your vehicle.

What are the fault codes? Try the ignition key:"on-off-on-off-on and leave on" doing that in 5 seconds or less elapsed time. Then count the number of flashes before each pause that the check engine light shows. Repeat. Then tell me the counts in the order of appearance. Those are the OBD-I codes. The controller (if it is a '96) also stores OBD-II codes that you get with a code reader and are more detailed. Get a readout for free an Autozone parts store, or an independent shop for about $40. Let me know those 4 digit numbers. If you write back tell me which engine you have. The ecu should be matched to the engine/transmission/model year of the vehicle.
