So I came to the conclusion that the only possible thing that could be causing my bad gas mileage was my ecu. So i got a p30 off ebay. While I was driving to gas and new plugs the cel came on and it read 13 BARO. It came on after i was leaving the gas station so it was the third time the car had been started with this ecu and maybe five minutes of driving. After doing some searchin it looks like that sensor is inside the ecu so does that mean the guy sent me a bad ecu. My other ecu didn't throw any codes but I was getting 12-15mpg. What should I do is it possible that it wasn't bad when I got it and my car did something to it. Before the cel came on i did notice when i was going about 35 in 4th there were these little surges but they were barely noticeable.

BTW Don't get on here and tell me what i should check other than the ecu to fix the bad gas mpg problem I have checked it all.

also does anyone know if it would be okay to drive with this ecu like that just to see if it takes care of my mpg problem or should i just put my p28 back in

bump common guys help me out, on a plus side though for the time it was running in my car it did seem to feel/sound a lot different so i think my old ecu may have had bad injector drivers causing the bad mpg like i was thinking

so the guy said he never tried it in a car so he is gonna refund me thanks for all your help h-t
