How do you know the ECU is bad???They rarely fail unless the battery acid eats thru 'em! I have a 73 1.7/2.0l ECU sitting on the shelf if you need it.

For info on testing the injection, see http://members.rennlist.com/pbanders .

Chances are that it's an ignition or a basic engine (or wiring) problem. Those are very often the cause of problems that people think are FI problems.
