hi fellow fans,

i am somberly typing because while testing for a cranking no start
condition, it turned into a no nothing condition.

in short, the battery was dead and i was under the hood using my test light,
pulling the coil to dist plug,etc.. to test for spark while a fellow vw
friend was manning the jumper pack in the backseat and turning the key on my
command. ... wellll, its very possible that he forgot me telling him that
the (opposite of typical) power strap is black and the ground is orange on
my 84-Qt..

sparing a longer clarification of what i suspect,,  the point..  i have a
MAC-2 hitachi ending in 383F as i imagine most ur quatts do.  what i ask is
if there are any ecu's (say from a 5ktq) that can be swapped in for testing
purposes &/or  are there any bonafide tests i can carry out w/my multimeter
across certain pins or points within the ECU to determine wether or not my
ECU deserves butter&jelly or if i missed something while pulling fuses and
relays..

very frustrated and looking for some insight..
