What would fry an ECU repetitively? An overcharging alternator? A friend of mine and I drove to Michigan to pick up a Hornet race car this past weekend. It's a 91 FWD nonturbo Talon manual trans. Owner said it kept frying ECUs because of an overcharging alternator. We were told all it needs is a new ECU, alternator, and battery. What do you guys think would cause this problem?

BTW, he's looking for those parts

On a side note, the DSM bretheren up there are very........redneck to say the least. Two early forties gentlemen with about twelve DSMs scattered about the yard of all varying years, makes, and equipment. The weeds all grown up around them, the garage is so crammed full of crap you can't even get a car near it, the engine crane is out in the front yard holding a turbo 4g63 next to a white 92 auto AWD on jackstands awaiting for the transplant. When I made the comment, "there's a wasps nest in the air recirc. vent behind the drivers door" I was told "that's part of living in the country". Like I don't live in the country!?! Fifteen miles from any type of convenience store, corn and bean fields as far as the eye can see and I've never had a wasp nest in my car! Anyway, I was happy to scatter from that place as fast as I could.
