Soggy ECU...HELP!
My garage flooded overnight and my ECU is submerged. I'm scheduled to go to Blackhawk this weekend. I might be able to dry it out but I'm not sure. Right now the car turns over but won't start. Anybody out there have a new ECU? I'm SOL for a track day without it.

remove it from the car and take the cover off. shake it dry, or blow it out carefully with an airgun, then let it dry out thoroughly for a while.don't forget the DME relay next to it.

Opened the dme and it was toast, I did find one at a dealer in Greensville NC. I've got to check out the rest of the car now. I spoke to Steve Wong and I'm probably good on the chip I had in there. Just swap it out with the new ECU.
