Well, no I haven't considered that. Would that work though?? I've got a 97 ECU and BCS on the way right now. Should have it all here and in the car by middle of next week. Like Tom and I were talking about on your thread, I noticed this when the PO300 first showed up. For example, I went out and cranked the car today and sat in it for maybe, 2-3 minutes. When I shut it off and went up to look at something on the engine the exhaust manifold was red hot. Nothing else was, just the exh. mani. I already knew I was running extremely lean, my a/f guage tells me that. I just don't know what is causing it. Also, and I have no idea if this has anything to do with it, but before I the car started running like shit and the PO300 came up I was having some weird cooling issues. When driving at cruising speeds the water temps were normal. But when I would come to a stop or a slow roll the temps would plummet. I just assumed I had a thermostat stuck open, but before I could get it swapped out all this happened. Like I said, I have no idea if that has anything to do with this PO300 or not. What do you think?? I wonder if it's possible the fuel pump could start could be going out, but still pumping a little. That would make it run lean. It's something that's not letting the engine get enough fuel. I just don't know what that something is.
