Tonight I was working with my local indy mechanic to try and troubleshoot my car again. He doesn't have a Tech II but he's a good friend and was really stumped at the seemingly random codes and electrical problems I was experiencing.
Finally we decided it might be better to just try and find a new ECU since it seemed like mine had gremlins in it. We pulled the old one out and pretty quickly noticed that at least 10-12 of the pins were really badly bent. This was completely my fault and the first time I plugged my ECU in I didn't really understand how it worked. I bent the pins. I was able to straighten all of them but one (which broke off.) I'll make a new post but does anyone know what pin 31 does?? I'm getting no CEL or other codes and everything I've tried in the car seems to work. Weird!
(Also -- the substitute evap purge valve seems to work perfectly. It's $25 on Rock Auto vs. $160 at the saab dealer.)
