Want to say there use to be or still is a scam on Ebay about this. The sell you a resistor to put inline on one of the senors and suppose to fool computer for better timing or somtething like that...

Not flaming original poster, but that resistor is a scam. Can get the same results with a timing light...

Dude, if a capacitor is bad in the ECM , then your pretty much out of luck. Unless you are an electrical engineer, and can rebuild the mother board in the ECM. It would just be easier to buy a reman'ed ECM..

But to be honest with you I am confused on what your are trying to ask... Who told you a ECM capacitor is bad????
