Using a Ho*da ECU

[Jon Snoddy]

Yes, Bruce, it sounds like you were "had".  If you paid somebody $100 for a
Honda ECU designed for an O2 sensor that had the sensor wires grounded,
somebody was jerking you around.  Get your money back!

Manufacturers play with cents.  Every cent saved is a large saving on the
show room floor.  Many of the purchase orders, and factory purchasing info
I've seen in my travels have cars coming out of the factory for 1/4 of the
final cost.....You don't throw money away at that level....

Hey, This is the internet, public information.  Tell who
you want, I'm sure Hon*a would be embarrassed to
admit they did such a thing, but I have the hardware
to prove it.  I wasn't too happy to spend $100 on that
stuff and then find it was useless to me.  Remember
a sensor we pay $125 for, might be $8.50 for the
wholesale big volume buyer.  Bruce Roe
