I can't imagine that it would. There is a 'start signal' input to the ecu , but for that to cause the injectors to get triggered without also knowing that the engine is turning - that really would seem 'not right' at all. Sometimes people crank on the starter for a minute steadily. That just could not work.

of course..if hydro-locked with gas .. just remove the spark plugs to clear the fuel out, Crank it on starter with a remote starter switch with fuel and ignition systems not on.

I had an ECU do exactly this in a 1.9 wbxr ...injectors on all the time, as soon as you turn on the key. I sent that ecu to David B. to look at .. basically we decided it was junk I think. He may still have it.
