Deffinitely something to do with you ECU double check all the fuses, and wiring to and from it, you might get off easy with something a lot cheaper to fix then a Blown ECU.

Sounds like you have an electrical nightmere on your hands. I don't know if you'd be better off grabbing a harness & ECU from a parts car to ensure that everything is ok, or rebuilding the harness. Who knows what else is fried.

you think somthing els is fried in the harnis somewhere ?

Hmm - it runs OK above 2K & dies below 2K..

I'd start by looking for a BIG vac leak.

check your TID for a crack where it meets the turbo inlet.

TPS adjustment anyone?

well from what he described the engine is cutting off completely, to me that sounds like the fuel pump trigger in the AFM is closing which will kill the motor suddenly like this and is generally caused by a leak in the system which is not pulling the flapper door open as it should.

if the charchol canister wasnt hooked up at the where you put the oil in would this caus that vac leak ?
