Thanks for all the input, its about to drive me to drinking also! LOL

Is the ECM powered by a relay?
No......at least not in mine. It has to have power all the time to retain codes in memory and such. No power for a few minutes.....that's how you reset them.

Battery to solenoid, fusible link to the fuseholder in the fender, from there directly to the ECM. There are some ignition switch controlled power sources to the ECM as well, but in my case the primary power link was the problem.
