Best ICM
I see a lot of different brands at different prices. Whats the best ignition control module to get for my "93 coupe? I want one that will hang for a while, as these seem to be a problem with these cars. What have you had good luck (or bad) with a particular brand of ICM?

well - first you need to make sure it is your problem.
I thought mine was eating them - turned out it was the cable connection on the passenger side intake. The connection between the opti and ECM.
Make sure you ALWAYS use heatsink/thermal compound between the ICM and the heat sink.
Other then that I haven't found any I would call excellent. O'Riely seems to work the longest so far

To add to this. I got one a while back from Advanced Auto Parts it was a BWD brand ICM. I looked on the box label and the darn thing was made in the USA. I could not believe it!!! I never used it and took it back.
Might want to give it a try if you determine it is bad. I bet the AcDelco one is made in China. Go figure.
