That $40 junkyard ECU swap saved my 92 Miata, but the $15 eBay timing belt kit I bought right after snapped at 80 miles.
Which is worse, rolling the dice on used factory parts from a pick-n-pull or gambling on no-name cheap stuff from China and hoping it holds up? Anyone else been burned by one or the other?

Nah, the junkyard ECU is actually safer since factory parts have a proven track record.

200k miles on that junkyard ECU with no issues? Or is it one of those "it worked when we pulled it" scenarios that could die next Tuesday?
