I'm trying to find a ECM for my 86 coupe. I posted in C4 parts/wanted, but received no reply. Anybody know where I could find one.

junkyards are loaded with 4 cylinder S-10 pick-ups around 1989 that used the -165 ecm...usual price $25 if you pull, $40 if they pull...its located in about the same place as the vette but pull down the hush panel (if its still there) and one 7mm screw and the computer falls on the floor...must reuse the chip from the vette

i've got a spare if you want it--$30 plus shipping

I've seen them on Ebay for about $80 with the eprom. At auto parts stores you will need to remove the old eprom to install in the remanufactured ECM.
