Vehicle: 1992 Subaru Legacy L AWD wagon non-turbo
If I replace the engine computer (ECU), do I need to do any timing or other
tuning due to the replacement? That is, is the ECU tweaked after
installation to match the current state of the vehicle? Due to other
problems, and if it looks necessary, I'm wondering what else would be needed
if the ECU gets replaced. I found a salvage yard that has an ECU supposedly
for my car model and only wants $30 for it. Seems pretty cheap, even for a
used one, so maybe I want to get it in the chance that eventually it turns
out that the ECU needs to get replaced (there are problems which point to
the ECU possibly being defective).
