Swapped the AMM/ECU from 86 into 83. Solved my troubles 200

I've for years been dealing with issues of a bad idle and even having the car stall for the first couple minutes. I did the swap and changed the AMM, ECU and plug wiring order in a matter of a 20 minutes. What took me years of trying all sorts of different things to fix the problem to no avail has finally been rectified. The car has got power and its motivated me to replace the clutch and rear axle that where in need of fixing. The M46 is out as I write. Tomorrow the clutch and rear main seal get replaced.

Time to put the 90 245 AUTO in storage for the winter to save it from a first year with salty roads. Wouldn't be right to expose it to the salt after 21 years in California.

Thanks for the help over the years to get this problem solved.
