xShodaimex Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 hey guys, so yeah.. my car had this problem that was intermitten.. it would start and idle for about a second then dies. Had it diagnosed and all. when it dies, i would just give it a slight knock or a light kick to the ecu and it would start right up.. so i guess its shorted. My zx is an 81 non turbo and i just need someone to tell me what this is. On my ecu it has the numbers and letters A11-621 601, 1414 L28 i saw an ecu on ebay with the numbers A11-620 600, 1330 L28 i would like to get my intermitten problem fixed immediately and wasnt sure if i had to get another ecu with the exact numbers or can i just use any nonturbo ecu for 81's?? Im still a highschool student trying to learn, so please excuse my lack of knowledge about these cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280zx 2by2 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 have you took the pannel off and looked at it? its probly not the ecu just the wiring or one of the connectors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruiz Racing Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 i had the same problem. it is most likely a connection problem. i had one lose wire. when you kick you reestablishing the connection. if all the wires fine and clean, "no green stuff", look for what ever is loose in there or get an other one. more than likely its a loose wire. but if you gooing to get an other one you should take it apart and see whats inside. try to learn how it works. you are going to though it away anyways.
