OK. Well my car started crapping out again and it turns out that cleaning the belts\ pullys off must have been a major fluke, because thats not what was causing my crappy running conditions. It starteed running like crap again so I cleaned the belts- no fix. I checked the O2 sensor- Looked fine. Checked the pugs for fouling- looked fine. Checked all of my vaccumme hoses- nice and tight. Finally pulled the ECU out and took it apart- cap=leaking. So it looks like the computer that Neil replaced 3 weeks ago is bad already. sad.gif I need an ECU for an AWD 1st gen 5-sp car. If anybody has one please let me know. I'm gonna try and replace the caps on both of them tomorrow, but we'll see how that goes. There is good news though. While I was checking the spark plugs I decided to check the compression. My engine looks like it runs nice and strong.

Cyl#1- 170
Cyl#2- 160
Cyl#3- 165
Cyl#4- 175

Now if I could just get this beast running again I could drive her a little bit. Oh well. I've got one running DSM (knock on wood).

BTW- I have 2 bad ECU's that one of the caps have gone out on each one (same cap) that I would be willing to exchange in part with some money for a good ECU or a good shape 14B turbo I would also trade for an ECU. If I get no replies by tomorrow I'm gonna try and solder myself some new caps onto these badboys. smile.gif

Nevermind I ordered new Caps. If anybody needs some caps I should have 2 extra sets. I ordered 5 sets, 2 for my ECU's and 1 for the TCU for my mirage.
