AS USUAL it runs FINE Till...............................it Started Bucking like a Bronco, i was determined to make it 3 more miles to a pawn shop, when it DIED on a HILL w/me FIRST in line at a stop light lol.. Finally cranked up, i heard a WHINE come from the computer, Chugged over to a friends tire shop, n contemplated a wrecker, meanwhile my pawn shop friend drives over n grabs his repaired amp,. After he leaves, it FIRES up n runs like a purring KITTEN.. Damn the TORPEDOES boys we flying HOME.. Got home by GRACE O GOD, pulled panel off, undid mtg bolts GRABBED the nut for COMPUTER connector and it is .......ABSOLUTELY FREEEKIN LOOSE......( many thx to past techs) SO,, i pull it anyways, fire up soldering gun clean MASSIVE corrosion at connector, CLEAN up the PAST WARRANTY REPAIR guys BLOBS ( musta been a friday lol) Got it back in, its running just a tad ruff, but just letting it idle for awhile, CEE howgozit, hope your wednesday isnt quite this dramatic

Given the chip shortages, wonder if these ECMs in our old rigs are worth more than our rigs now LOL.
