I had to swap out my ECU, no biggie right?
Nope, the bolt that holds the ECU was stripped and the ECU was stuck!!
I had to cut the bolt to get the bad ECU out!:ohdamn:
I managed to cut the bolt with a dremel without damaging anything.
My question is, can any one give me the measurements of the bolt I need to replace?
Thanks in advance!
 
A lot of bolts on the car will work mine does on my 1g ecu bolts, engine bay bolts, i would get one and see if it fits the hole your trying to replace.
 
Yes but on a 420A the ECU has a big proprietary bolt, that runs through the actual plug.
I'm not talking about the mounting bolts, like on the 4g63 ECUs.
Here is a picture, I drew the crappy red arrow.
