So my car died the other night and my friends told me it was the ecu. So after I got the newer ecu we replaced it and have NO spark, but have fuel. Before we took the old ecu out it had spark and would start every once in a while. I have a 90 GST but the ecu is a 91, I've replaced the 6 wire and 14. Can anyone really help give me ideas why the car won't start at all. We even put the old ECU back in and it won't spark now either. If anyone has a picture or link of where the grounds are for the ecu please help me.
Also we ran a diagnostic test with my friends shop scanner and it was coming up with nothing saying the connection was bad. We also put another throttle body on last night but didn't do anything really to mess up the wires. I read on somewhere that I need a power transistor so does anyone know if that is true, because the shop I got the ecu from didn't mention one thing. Thanks for the help guys.
