Default 85 PROM .bin Question

After discovering that the engine in my car is a Jasper engine, I'm trying to figure out what previous owner had the ECM has been programmed to. Is there a way to pull the .bin file from a PROM without a PROM reader? or read the contents of the .bin file at least?

I made an ALDL connector and used winALDL in the past to help me reset my idle speed and such, can I gather this data from that connector? or would I need a different type of connector for that data?

Thanks guys

You'll need a prom reader/burner - no other way I'm afraid.

Do you know what kind of reader I should look for? I'm not sure what kind of chip is in the ECM.
