Bad Gas mileage/Checking ECT 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Crazy Brick on  Tue Dec 24 20:02 CST 2002 [RELATED]

That is bad gas mileage!! The ECU should be behind the front passenger kick panel. The thing looks like a 8X8x2" silver box with a bosch/jetronic label on it. There is a large wire connecting "wire bus" attached to the box. When removing the bus cable on the computer make sure you disconnect the battery first or you could fry the entire ECU in your attempt to solve the temp sensor problem.

Other things to check include the O2 Sensor - mileage goes down if this is shot too.

Tim.
