I?ve kicked around the idea of sending it to Marc, but to be honest, my car is kind of a beater. I tried giving it to a shop here in the PNW but they couldn?t get it to skip a beat. When I picked it up, the owner commented that it ran really well? so I?m afraid that he?d get it and it would run great.
I did have Marc check out the ecm, and I?m not happy about spending the money for a good one, but I?d rather spend the money and just eliminate it as the culprit. |

you may be surprised on what Marc might find. Might be a good idea if the issue cannot be found.

Update: I bought another ecm and installed it yesterday. Today, I drove the car for about an hour to an autocross, made 4 runs, and made it home. Car ran great the whole time.
It sure feels good. Made great power, not one hiccup. I ran it hard and it was hot. This was close to the same conditions that it failed in last time. It was hotter today, but it didn?t make 2 runs before failing and I barely made it home. Cheers, Reed |

Congratulations on getting it working right. I presume that when you said it didn't make 2 runs before failing and you barely made it home that you were talking about the previous time, not with the new ecm. Anyway, hope you can continue to enjoy it. --Bob
