Re: Stalled in hot weather-Solved 700 1991

The ECU he put in your car was also a "reman" ECU because new would cost alot more money. Volvo and all other manufacturers exchange many parts like control units (etc,etc), it's a common practice these days. They rebuild the old problematic parts, finding the cause of it's failure and repairing it.

They're not then resold as "new", they're called "remans" and always far more reasonably priced than new.
