A real quickie - trying to remove my ECU and the wire harness doesn't disconnect from the ECU. There's a little black screw at the top of the black sheath covering the harness connection. OK to remove?
Been doing this long enough to have learned not to unscrew things I don't know anything about! Got the ECU and cradle unbolted, but not enough room (engine in place) to remove with the harness connected. Thanks! |

You shouldn't have to remove the harness to drop the engine. If you've got the ECU unbolted from the firewall and the plugs out of the relay board, just lie the ECU and harness on top of the engine for the drop. Not sure what you mean by there not being enough room to remove with the harness connected. Any pics?
