Electronic shop doesn't want to solder chip out :(

Common, buy it and join us! :tongue:
Yellow is not my favorite too, just one level above the Charcoal IMO. :tongue:
But you it's a 3.2 6 speed driven by a very old man, first hand.

Curious!!!
I have never seen so many cars "driven" by old men (sometime even old women ) like the ones on sale in the exotic cars market! :biggrin:

Two of my three were driven by old people... ok one for real, it was Lino's... :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

Removal with the cutting method wrecks the chip and saves the circuit board which is the best method when doing repairs and replacing a bad IC. Removing the chip whole and for reuse is very difficult and time consuming. On the 28pin ECU EPROM IC it's just a nightmare to do. I recently removed a 20 pin IC for reuse and it was a pain and all I needed was the IC and did not need to worry about the circuit board.

I used a GC Solder Popper to remove my OEM chip. Worked like a charm and the OEM chip came out clean as a whistle:

I'll do the mod for you if your local guy is too chicken. LMK.

BUMP...

Ok, so after all this I noticed no one mentioned how to pull your ECU out to exchange it with an SOS one or other choices available...

I looked in the 91 maint. manual and couldn't find it, someone help? Where's it located and does it just come right out...the whole ECU?

I gave my ECU to a friend who knew of a specialist here in Switzerland. I'm quite happy I didn't tried it myself and the OEM chip still works.
Try to find a specialist in your country. So if you take the SOS one why don't you use the exchange option from SOS? That's what I would have done if I lived in the States.
