qofuq Posted 1July, 2022 Report Share Posted 1July, 2022 My 1987 3.2 keeps cutting out - randomly. I've changed multiple sensors, AFM, etc etc etc but it continues to exhibit the same problem. Cuts out randomly, will not restart for 10-20 seconds, then fires up and runs fine for anything from 50 yards to 50 miles. I noticed yesterday that if I pull on the harness where it plugs into the ECU, that the car will restart immediately, literally turn the key and the engine will try to start but the instant I pull the harness it fires. I've done this at least 10 times now which makes me think it must be the ECU. I've pulled on the individual wires with the engine running, checked the big plug etc and and cannot make the car cut out. I've also gone into the ECU and re-soldered a couple of suspect joints but is there something in there that is known to fail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter M Posted 1July, 2022 Report Share Posted 1July, 2022 Sounds more like a faulty connection in the harness socket for the ecu rather than the ecu by the way you describe it. P-Kay and Merv 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
