Help asap! Need new ecu maybe?
« on: February 14, 2011, 02:55:45 PM »
Ok, so iv had problems with my fuel injector before, replaced it with another one from a junkyard, worked for six months, now it died out again. I saw when I start the car, it cranks over, fuel pump still works but no fuel coming out from fuel injector! So I went and bought a new one from the local parts, inatalled and still no fuel coming from injector! Any idea what tthis could be" I read on another forum that it might be the ecu because they have a tendency to go bad? What do u guys think? Its a 92 geo tracker with throttle body fuel injection. Any help would be greatly appreciated

From what I've read on here that's a distinct possibility. You can remove the ECU from under the dash just above your left knee and open the cover to look for leaking capacitors and even smell it for the " burnt" (money  :()smell. Shouldn't be too hard to come by one though, lots of guys parting out Trackicks here and on the Zhuwarrie forum.

Thanks! Yeah, I mean everything else is fine, I did notice my battery light would flicker here and there, I just put a altenator and a new battery too! So maybe it is the ecu? Anyone else?
