lol...sounds like my car. tomorrow i'm replacing the IAC motor and the TPS in mine. and hopefully that problem will finally stop.

I had the same problem with my Turbo 92, and I don't see why the same thing couldn't happen on a n/t. Check your ECU....take it out, take off the metal cover and smell it. If it smells like rotten fish your ECU's caps are leaking, and ruining the ECU, mine was bad enough to where there was actually burn marks on it. Caused all sorts of weird problems. I tried everything, before actually checking the ECU, picked up a used turbo ECU for $75 and it ran fine till the day I sold it.

did you mean glove box

[boots03]

ya i did, i couldnt spell last night, my bad, and i was wrong, i was thinking of my Z24, i have no clue where the ECU is on that car, i never did look for it on my old talon

1992 The ecu is behind the cover where the heating vents are in the middle.To remove that take the screws out at the bottom and left side and also pop out the vents above the radio.There are some screws that have to come out.Remove the heat control knobs and then the cover.Then look for the box in there you can't miss it.

The ecm is actually standing up directly underneath the radio. You need to remove the front carpeted panels under each side of the console, no other panels need to be removed. The carpeted panels are held by two screws on each side, they are covered by a round plastic piece that matches the carpet color, it's about 1" in diameter. They pop out with a screw driver.

The ECM itself is held in place with two screws on each side, which are accessible once you remove those carpeted panels.

It doesn't make much sense to remove it unless you know it's bad. The right thing to do is to get the fault codes from it, which I explain in another post in these same forums, if you need a link to it I'll find it. Anyway, you need to find out what sensor or device is causing the problem, and that can be determined by the fault code.
