[V8] 2002 A6 Quattro V8 4.2L. Starting problem

[John Zofchak]

It came from western PA.  Supposedly "garaged".  It had a significant
amount of maintenance done recently like timing belt kit water pump and the
like so I thought it would be a good buy.  If I can get some cash back
through eBay I will probably look into a service contract with a
top company.  It did run really well while it did.  I may have touched
whatever is wrong, as it did start once after not starting.  I had been
checking hoses and wires ans such.  So possibly whatever it is, once fixed
it should be great again.

Where is the ECU located.  I don't even have an owners manual.
