ECM

by "labtech_one" <labtech_one@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 22, 2007 at 06:41 PM

before I undertake this project, I thought I'd ask if anyone else has had
this
problem. Here are the syptoms:

  1)  car starts poorly ( starts & dies, must keep pumping gas pedal )
  2) check engine light comes on after the engine warms up some and
       stays ON
  3) car runs like crap, once it does warm up

 I checked the error codes, and get ONLY an error 15  which indicates
"Coolant Temperature Sensor (CTS) - signal voltage is high"

I have replaced the temp sensor ( the one near the distributor ) 2 times
just in case of a 'bad' one ( so we've had the original plus 2 NEW ones in
there)
with no change.   I inspected the wires as far back as I could in the
engine
compartment
and have found nothing wrong ( no breaks or shorts )

In order to inspect further to the ECM I have to pull the inside of the
car
apart,
so I ordered a new ECM ( rebuilt from the Fiero Store ) so I don't have to
tear it apart again or leave it torn up and risk loosing parts.

I'm working on a 1988  GT  - V6, 5 spd ( with stock engine )

Am I missing something ?  Is there another sensor that I'm not aware of ?
Any thing else besides the ECM that could be causing the problem ?


Thanks in advance
