The CKP and CMP sensors are fixed and have no way of adjusting them. I took them off in 2012 when the car was dismantled and put them back in after 6 months with one bolt with no problems. The car ran fine with many, many miles before this happened. I have no compression tester so I will need to remove the valve cover and actually see if the cams are turning. This would be easier for me to fix than an ecu gone bad.
OK let's say this is actually OBD1, then why is the 16 pin connector under the dash? Very difficult to put jumpers in right?
Regarding the ignition coil. There are 2 in one package. One of each primary wire are connected to 12 volts and the each of the other two are connected to the ecu. No firewall mounted drivers. I like a system with all the drivers outside instead of inside the ecu. Looks cluttered but easier to troubleshoot. Agree?
Regarding the ecu don't worry. No SMPs were damaged. That is why it took me more than week to remove most of the potting compound. The pcb is clean with no signs of acid damage or burned tracks. As I said only two small electrolytics were changed (Nos. 1 and 4). I would change nos. 2 and 3.
