[DMCForum] Re: ECU's all up on e-bay

["Matt Spittle" <mds328@xxxxxxx>]

The idlespeed motor on the eagle bolts into the throttle valve.  It's
actually a little servo that physically opens and closes the throttle
opposite the side of the valve that the throttle cable is on.  I can
take a picture if you're curious.  Are you saying this would work the
same as the regular idlespeed motor?  There are 3 pins, but the
connector is different from the D's idlespeed motor.  

Hmmm...lambda ECU...I'll have to see how it does on e-bay...
