Haha thats what I said , im a happy man now .

AnyWay, I want to point out to anyone who is starting with a pre-owened SC , to replace your ignition coils before they go out on you unexpectedly, and before you replace the ECU or assume its them ECU, since its a cheaper way to go , then if that doesnt work , move on to replacing the ECU.

Hope This helps future sc oweners.
Coils / ECU are the problem with most minor issues in the 1uzfe... Glad you got 'er figured... now get that spare ECU rebuilt so you don't have to ensure the super random problems that occur when the caps start going bad

Edit: Just looked at the time stamps lol... apparently i'm a little late to the party ....
