ECU fried twice - HELP! 200 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be Chuck Cunningham on  Mon May 28 11:12 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hello,

I have a 1990 240DL wagon. About a year ago she died suddenly - diagnosis: no gas getting to engine. Turned out that the part of the ECU controlling fuel pumps was dead. I got it "fixed" by some place that charged $700 (!!!) with a one year warranty and the car ran fine for thousands of kilometres.

Last weekend the same thing happened again, this time 300k from home. It turned out the be the same problem again, and the ECU is currently being fixed under warranty. But I'm left with the problem of trying to prevent this from happening again. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Chuck
