ECU - In Put Power Check Under Load

Hey John - I was going over some notes that I'd taken while helping to sort out another "No Injector Pulse" problem on a 1982 928 a while back. There is supposed to be a voltage stabilization circuit inside the ECU that can temporarily keep it's internal operating voltages boosted up (I assume some large capacitors) if the external battery drops below 9 or 10 volts during start. We'd determined that this circuit had failed and was dragging down the internal operating voltage in the old 82 computer I still have - marked bad.

Just a suggestion but you might test your ECU supply voltage during start just to make sure your external power source is over the 10 volt mark.

Good Luck, Michael
