 If you had an oscilloscope you could see transitions on the ALDL wire ( not helpful I know)
Who doesn't have a spare ECM?

My experience is that Bob pretty much fixes them for life.

Have you tested the Latvian injectors? Seems to be all rally racing there from what I've seen

The worst thing a country can do is to change its  ways to make visitors happy by accommodating itself to them.

Pleased to see your senators taking the university management to task. Our political "leaders" are afraid of their new immigrant voters

When I did the old F150 I found the "crash-parts" perfect adequate, OEM prices were absurd.

Nice, OEM or "crash-parts" as they like to call 3rd party  replacements?

If you are doing the whole car I wouldn't worry, pick what you like. My car was stolen in about year 3 and got a paint job upon recovery. Lacquer was already dead and best I can tell they put a barrier coat and BASF enamel over it. Don't recall anyone looking at my car and saying I have the wrong black.

I thought on the Canadian side that even the premium now has corn in it. Maybe the former Petrocan's that still pump 94 octane might be an exception
