Whats the reson for this if your computer works why not keep running it. I have retrofited computer controled rigs before but because the computer craped out.
Title: esc
Post by: happycampers on May 27, 2006, 09:32:00 am: thanks blazin,,
im not worried about the ecm,, but id like to disable the esc,, i have a small pingsing on take off,, but other than that the truck runs atrong,,, its a 85 c 10 custom d with a 305 ,, m65(4speed)?, and a 208,, with 10 bolts and 373's, ive removed all smog equipment, and installed a 600 edelbrock performer ,and a stock distributor,,
ive heard that i can bypass the esc by tieing to wires together,,, i would like to try this, and disable my esc, to see if that helps the ping,,
thanks blazin
