Sorry. left off the :llama:

Find anything?

If you get a CEL with key on, the computer has power. 12v from ignition is Y on pin 9.
4 wire sensor has B to ground; BW shared with EFI, EGR, and ISC solenoids to pins 27 and 35; GY to pin 8; GB to pin 17.

There is no CEL on these. The yellow wire from ignition is for starter sol. ECU voltage is black/white wires. I believe the ECU is fried but if anyone has anymore suggestions I will listen.

YES! Not to mention the fact that it changed nearly every year from 81 to the end of the turbos. Looks like 81 is the only year that the CAS is actually on the crank. The rest are on the dizzy. :roll:

Now you know why I haven't much hair left. Only year and option that is wired in this fashion. I told them that I needed an ECU before I could do any more to it. I know where there is an 83 non turbo that I can take parts off of. It would be a good car for Johnny to put that LS in
