tampering with the brains of the car isnt the best idea if were unsure of the outcome / process.
thing with the throttle cable is just it being slack not giving you enough rpms with the peddle to the floor.. would explain your power loss right?
make sure you put the ecu back in correctly. I've removed mine a couple times. You dont need to remove it to reset it, d/c the battery is enough. Just removing the negative cable for a few minutes is enough to reset it. Your car was working fine just a few moments ago yes? just a code 43 that could of been easily checked / replaced.
yes you have the ecu connected (plugged in) and your checking the pins. w/ the key turned to ON
damn you did d/c the battery before removing the ecu right? just precautions there. Its a stout piece of electronics that usually dosn't go bad. make sure you have the connectors in the right spots. But IIRC there all different sizes.. make sure there pushed in fully man.
