1993 Lexus can I use any ecu with cali emissions?
I have a 1993 lexus ls400, while in gear it cuts out at 2000rpm if you get it on it heavy, if I put it in 1st and go light throttle I can hit upwards 4000rpm. I read on here it's most likely a maf, ecu or tps, my main question is I have a california emissions car and the junkyard says it makes a difference can I use any computer or has to be cali? thanks

very likely you have bad capacitors in your ECU. it's a very common problem.

even the junkyard ECUs will have defective capacitors due to the age. best to buy a replacement ECU, install the appropriate capacitors, and reinstall into the car for less downtime.
