Thank you Kevin for the ohms readings. I must have missed that in Sec. 6.
I read on CF that there is a way to check the ohms thru the ECM connector, but the post was a bit over my head. Anyone ever do it that way? How is that done? I'm not garaged so I want avoid the plenum for now as I'm in the process of securing a rented space to do that work over the winter. Thanks for your help!

Hi A40, Yea I have Gordon's book & jumper modules & he explains the drill so even the non-EEC people can read codes. I waited, in fact I did the ECM & CCM. The local independent tech I spoke with laughed when I told him about my troubles. He said..."Those EEC systems from back then are retarded. The ECM might have lost a ground or it could have quit on you, outside it might be the MAP, but I doubt it. Did you check the grounds?" I couldn't say much because I don't know much. I have all the paper from the orig. owner & it seems not. I don't have a dealership receipt for that. I can say my guess would be no it wasn't done because it has the symptoms. Thanks for your time!

Tom, I should have done GK's school.
