Has anyone out their purchased an orange ECU that was junk out of the box?
I have been trying for days to fire my 318 up. I have trouble shooted, and traced all of my wires, and all seem correct. Resistor is good. Distributor is new replacement w/orange box that I tied into system, and was running good last year when I removed motor. I replaced motor. Engine would not start. It turns over like crazy, but will not start. I reset the reluctor, and it fired right up. I had a bad ground, and I think fried the box. I got a new box from summit, and it acts exactly the same. No spark. I have a timing light hooked up, and there is no spark during cranking. I am running a 0.6 ohm coil, and the proper ballast. The coil checks out with multi-meter. It can only be the ECU! Right!?! I am at the end of my rope! The next thing that I buy for this accursed car will be either a sledge hammer, for sale sign, or both. PLEASE HELP!!:angry7:
