When the check engine light comes on does the car still run properly? Any hesitation? I chased the same condition, changed ( borrowed from a friend's car ) ECM and chip. Turned out the MAS was going bad and the condition kept getting worste until the MAS went bad enough to set a code.

Just be careful, you normally can't return electrical parts. You might be better off looking of a donor, or someone parting out car with same engine/trans.

What are you using to pull the codes? I use Diacom on 3rd gens, works nicely for reading the car while it's being driven and can check codes realtime.
