I think that they were phasing out the CCC at around this time..  My 89
LeSabre (3.8L)
has a P4, 91 Sunbird (3.1L) has a P4, and 93 Safari (4.3L) has one as well.
 The CCC was from the early eighties wasn't it?  

Just looked in the service manual for my old 1981 Lesabre, it had the C3.
Thats almost 18 years ago I bought that car.  That ECM leasted quite a
while, longer than I thought.
