'95 Corsica Computer Change ?

bugdoc@linkny.com

I have a 2.2 4cyl. Corsica that apparently needs another cp because the mechanic diagnosed it as a very possible problem.... no lights or codes showing... intermittent power problem at times.. runs rich and clears up after a while "sometimes' Main question is : does this computer need to be uploaded with the info from the exiting old one ? Or, given that it is a '95 can I just R&R and be done with it ? Thanks for your input Gents . JIM

In a 95 it isn't really a cp, it is a brain box, you can R&R it no problem. I had a 94 Gran Prix that ate brainboxes, to the point that I ran the harness up through the dash and had the brainbox sit on the dash to make replacement easier.

what was the symptoms in your '94 GP that it "ate' them

Intermittent fuel pressure problems, occasional spark control issues, backpressure reading failures, I think the problem is the brainbox itself does deal with changes that are caused by wear and buildup, and I had a source for the boxes new and cheap.

Genuine GM JUNK!

We had a Corsica too. It kept chewing up some little plastic gear inside the transmission that controlled the shifting. One car in my life I was glad to get rid of.
