eBay makes ECU's? In that case, I know exactly which ONE ECU available on eBay you're referring to.

Yes its good.
No. **** sucks.

Pick whichever answer works for you

Anytime you buy used it's a crap shoot, sometimes it works, sometimes it don't. With used parts on ebay, not sure if there is any warranty. You are better off going to the junk yards, they offer 30 day warranty so you can exchange if the one you got is bunk.

This thread is more long the lines of an opinion poll and doesn't really belong in the technical forum.
