Well, finally got it running.

I put the memory chip in the ebay ecm , ran a little better, checked fuel pump pressure, it was 8 psi so I put in a new pump motor.

The idle is a little rough, but I can drive the van.

Going to look at idle sensor next.

Open for ideas. thanks.

Thanks. I am getting an education, things are a lot different than when I worked on cars 30 years ago. All kinds of things I am trying to get my truck running. I took the old ecm to a friend who is good with electronics. he looked at it and said the part burned up was a diode and he replaced it with...

Thanks for the tip.

The problem is I do not know what the memory chip looks like or how to swap it.

Thanks, I figured it out, took it out and found a little part in the center of the board fried.

Thanks for the reply. I didn't really want to go digging into the dash because all the plastic trim is crumbling, but I did and every piece broke, no way to put it back together, but I don't really care as it is just an old work van. I didn't see a big plug on the back, just a flat multiwire strip l...

I have a 99 Safari, all the guages and speedometer stopped working about a month ago. I checked the fuse under the dash marked 'GAUGES' and it was good and there was 12 volts there with the key on. A couple days later they started working and I was happy. A week ago they quit again and have not come...

Just an old guy here that likes these vans. I started with a 91 that I drove for a couple years then got a 99 with windows that I have had for about eight years and last year I picked up a nice 92 shorty cargo van. Not into changing them much, just want them to run when I turn the key. Wish I would ...
