I installed a Walboro fuel pump in my 86na. I don't know how it ran before I did this because I bought it with a bad pump. But, now when I put a load on the engine, such as trying to accelerate quickly or driveing at hi speeds, it has a huge flat spot.
I'm thinking it's getting to much fuel, and I plan to replace the ECU. Is there something else that might be causeing the problem? If not is there a way I can equil out the air fuel ratio manually?

simple possibility: bad wires and plugs?
complex possibilities: could there be some reason that the computer may be thinking there is more air than there actually is or maybe something wrong with the temperature signal? just guessing ...

The ECU is black, inside the driver side kick panel, and the PCM is on the passenger side. Which one needs to be checked or replaced, and what is the difference between the two if they go bad (or soldering)?

It's caused by bad grounds.
