I ordered another ECM today. I keep getting random codes and a "input shaft sensor" code. I replaced the sensor andI still get a stalling condition under load with the soft code still. Not sure what's going on here, but I'll have a spare ECM to mess with.

well I thought that fixed the problem but it is now it has less power than stock. how important is that oil that you spray on the filter, mine has not been sprayed for at least 20,000 miles.?

If you are going to use that kind of filter.....VERY IMPORTANT.

That's like drinking a Gin and Tonic without the Gin.....tastes funny and doesn't quite get the job done.

The oil actually traps the dirt and debris, otherwise it goes right through the filter.

I did not realize that it was that important. But I called edge today and they said that it was very unlikely that the evo was malfunctioning, but if I send it back they will reprogram the evo. Maybe the best part is it won't cost anything but shipping to utah. I hape that takes care of it.
