Default Problem solved??

Been having trouble having car start when engine is hot, security light flashing, with a service ASR popping up.
This weekend I picked up a ECM from a salvage yard for 60 bucks and installed it. So far, three days later, I have not been able to duplicate the problem/symptoms. Lights are gone and she fires right up under all tempertures. Hopefully problems won't return and nothing else pops up.
It is just kinda embarrassing to have people admire your car, you hop in and she doesn't start.
Will be keeping an eye out to see if problems are long gone.

I was thinking a new one would cost closer to 250.00 and 60.00 sounded like a great deal. This white 92 had massive rear end damage but front end look unscratched. Even better was it was quite an easy job to do.
