Default Limp mode, ecu doesn't blink

I tried a search and I notice a few people here has this same problem, and everyone just assume it's a bad ecu.

I have a pre obd ecu in my teg and this only happens when the car gets hot. If I just reset the ecu and wait for the car to cool down, then it works again. But after I've drove a while and the car is hot again, it switch over to limp mode again and I just have to do this over and over as I'm driving.

I'm assuming that when the engine bay gets too hot, some of the sensors might send out crazy signals and jam the ecu. Anyone here has figured out what's going on? Your help is greatly appreciated.

I put in a different ecu today and it gives me code 13, PA(atmospheric pressure) sensor. I heard that this sensor is inside the ecu itself. Anyone knowledgeable about this?
