I jus recently had a no spark problemt and i did some part swaping with a friend and we figured out it was the ecu... Well i replaced the ecu and it ran great but after abotu 3 start ups the car would not start again and once again NO SPARK... and once again its the ECU. What is causeing this problem and what should i do about it this is an exdpensive problem???

I wouldnt think so. I personally think theres somehting else at work here besides the ECU. Do some sherlock work and try to find another source.

My bad reason I asked was if he switched to low impedance injectors (from stock Hi-impedance) it might have made the ECU malfunction.
