If you need a junk ECU let me know - just pay shipping and it's yours - Don't destroy a good turbo ECU!

I have the OEM from the stock 4cyl from 2 of my Rangers - one an 86 the other an 88. The '86 I don't think turns on the Fuel pump like it should - water leaked in on it, the other one ran fine when I pulled the N/A engine..

x1xmythx1x · Jul 28 2009, 05:17pm

too late this Merkur xr4ti ecu is trashed already pulled the 60 pin from it... which by the way was hard a hell
