New member. Just rebuilt =
85 vanagon 1.9
with 192,000 miles. Ran great for 121 miles then began having =
electric twitters. Rebuilt starter before noticing burnt =
wires.
Further checking revealed burnt fuel injection relay and, ultimately, a =
burnt
smell coming from the vent hole of the ecu. After checking around =
and
finding nobody willing to check-out the ecu, I decided, that, hey, It =
should not
take a rocket scientist or brain surgeon to take a peek into an =
ecu.
Popped the top and, sure enough, there is an obvious burnt thingamajig =
inside
the ecu. But it looks like only one burnt =
thingamajig. So now I
seek an ecu. It appears that original ecu was made by Bosch, which =
my
limited understanding suggests may be the preferred unit to run. =
Anyone
out there willing to let me know if there are different ecus, such as =
others
made by vw, which will work for my 1.9? I think I want a Bosch
replacement, if there are any out there and if I can find =
one. A used
but functional ecu would be ok. Anyone out there who has such =
a used
Bosch unit and is willing to sell or trade, please let me =
know.
Thanks.
