If you had a water puddle in the car high enough to reach the
ECU, then chances are you'd be having a lot of other electrical
gremlins!  Basically, anything with electronics or electrical
contacts (relays, connectors and plugs) are suspect.

Other sources of water could be the windshield seal,
sunroof drain tube, A/C evaporator tray and door seal.

Any year 84-87 4Kq should have the same KE-Jetronic ECU, as
well as Audi Coupes from the same vintage (but not the 87.5 Coupe).
Basically, any car with the JT or KX engine.
