Well? What ECU?

Sounds like you bought an ECU from an OBD-1 car which has 3 plugs.
OBD-0 only has 2 plugs and you would need a jumper/conversion harness to make the OBD-1 ECU work.

So what's your point?
I have 9 finger and 12 toes.



Ok - you're right.
Here's some helpful info to diferenciate between OBD-0 and OBD-1

If you count the pins in the plugs and find the plug that has the MOST pins in it -
(I'm counting <U>available</U> wire spots - with or without all the pins.. just like they count them in the manuals)

OBD-0 has 20 (and the other two are a 18 and an 16 pin)
OBD-1 has 26 (and the other two are 16 and 22)
