Re: new subscriber please help ecm problem



Hi, Ed.  You should probably have a good reference handy, especially
wiring diagrams.  I've used Popular Mechanics CD's before, they're
available at Autozone stores.

There's lots of questions that need answers, but you'll want to get a
picture of the ecm power and gound circuits at the very least.
