Yes crush the bead but leave the tan resitor alone. You only cut the tan resitor if you have a chip.

yeah....

major improvement with the black bead crushed
I cant imagine someone driving the car the last
100K miles like that.....pretty sad the dealer never
took the time to do it for the last owner.

Bloody good one. The best laugh I have had in ages.

P.S. The beady eyes are perfect.

P.P.S. Just showed the beady eyes to my wife. We are animal caring people and she was tickled pink. One of my sons once had a cute white rat and he named her "priss". My very large Rhodesian Ridgeback did know what to make of Priss and she used to sorely tax his patience.

One last thought to crush the bead are you just grabbing a pair of pliars and squishing it parrallel to the wires or the cross wise

wow, i fell like a HUGE idiot!! and a very lucky one! i took out the ecu and tried breaking the wrong thing!!! luckily it was hard as hell and wouldnt go. i looked at some pictures and now i know what to do, back outside i go even though ive been working on her for the past 5 hours! stupid spark plugs take so much time! at least i got some maintanance done!

i also read on this thread about the ROM having something to do with the hesitation/slow start. has anyone done this and is there a how to? thanks!

Re: Hesitation Found: Ecu Crush Mod Really Works

is this something ALL 92's should look out for or only the earlier build dates?

I have a build date of 9/91 and i feel hesitation but dont want to go thru the trouble of getting upside down and rummaging thru a rats nest of wires to take out an ECU that cant be modified.

Re: Hesitation Found: Ecu Crush Mod Really Works

im pretty sure yours can be modified sic, mine has a build date in 91 and i was able to crush mine. i think its the later model 92's.

Re: Hesitation Found: Ecu Crush Mod Really Works

So I pulled my ECU out and long story short the black bead was in there.

car feels a lot smoother now and pull harder than ever.

Re: Hesitation Found: Ecu Crush Mod Really Works

I was just reading up on this yesterday and earlier today. I have decided to give it a try. Was it hard to get the ECU out?
