Re: Help with PCM
"PCM's" are pretty rugged ... but they do occasionally fail. I would bet on other things first:
Start reading here: http://www.autozone.com/servlet/UiBr...3d800b97cc.jsp Be sure you cover all the subsets ... especially the "diagnostic trouble code charts". |

Re: Help with PCM
Generally the computer isn't the problem connect your plug wires. Disconnect you Neg. battery cable for 90 seconds. The problem should go away.
Normally the computer will not advance timing when bad. Mark your timing marks look where it is at idle and if when gunning the motor it won't move the mark do further checking. |
