amen to that! and if you get all this n it still doenst work, id check ur timing, cap, rotor, wires, and c if anything else is throwin a code. but everything else has pretty much already been stated. convert to obd1, get the hard ware needed, n run the right ecu. keep ur oil level up n make sure ur speedo is workin n ur not throwin any more codes.
