[V8] smoking v8 on decelleration

[Seamus O'Carey]

Just thought I'd chime in here.  After swapping out the brake servo the
other day I ended up swapping the ECU from my pearl into the silver car*.
After reading this thread I remembered that the silver car has smoked since
I got it, so I thought I'd go check to see if swapping the ECU made any
difference.  As it turns out it seems to not smoke anymore.  I'm going to
let it cool off and try again in a little bit just to be sure.  It'd be
great if swapping the ECU made the car faster AND stop smoking!

*Just in case anyone wonders how those two things are related: I had to pull
the ECU to get access to two of the servo's bolts.  Since the ECU in the
pearl car (which is getting parted) had an ABT chip it seemed like a good
time to swap them.  :)
