Default She might need an ECU

Well I know it's been a while since I've said anything about my lady, she's been sitting at the shop waiting on her turn. Got her in today and looks like she's gonna need an ECU. **** me.

Anyone got any advice about used ECUs, I definitely don't have the cash for a new one.

I have a 2.8 ecu lying around. pm me the number on yours and if it matches mine I'll hook it up for like 75 bucks shipped to the lower 48.

I was told I needed a new ECU a year ago. I had a dealership flash the computer to the right settings and it's been fine until two days ago when... but it was reflashed today and is firing on all cylinders. Maybe they can reflash it for you? Just a thought
