Update: �Engine Cranks but No Start!� Finally got a used ECU from a friend and tried it after allowing the cylinders to dry out overnight from all the gas inside them � the engine started right away! Am also changing oil & filter as I write! A Heads-Up: When the ECU goes bad � it can flood that engine in no time at all and I mean with the injectors flowing under pressure non-stop there will be gallons on fuel in the cylinders fast � mine was even pouring out the exhaust after many tries to start!!! Be careful � there will be gasoline everywhere!! Moral of this saga � carry a spare E.C.U. if you have never changed yours in 30 years � I was still running on the original one since new in 1984. Needless to say I will be looking for and carrying a spare one from now on. Question: Does anyone know of a company that refurbishes E.C.Us? Thanks again to this wonderful list for the many responses to my dilemma!!! Wrenold
