Desperately seeking replacement 911 ECU!

Hi everyone, first post from me- and its a cracker!

I've a 1987 3.2. My ECU has packed up and the ECU doctor says that the unit is irrepairable.

I've tried replacement units from Camens who have been really helpful, but for some reason the car doesnt like them and no amount of tweaking can get the thing to start properly, although runs ok when warmed up.

I've tried swapping out the unit with a 1988 stock Bosch ECU from another car and the car starts up and runs excellent.

The car is with my independent who has tried his usual suppliers and no one has anything, even refurbished available ( including the ECU doctor)

Can anyone think of anyone I could contact or who might be holding these in stock and I'll check them against my `already tried them `list.

Design 911 advertise a new Bosch replacement unit, but they dont have any in stock and cant say when if ever they will be geting new stock.

Ebay only currently has US stuff, no Euro Spec ECU's.

I guess the old girl is dead in the water until I can find a supplier.

Cheers everyone
 
You could try Douglas valley breakers in Wigan. They are a bit pricey but they may have what you are looking for.

Aha, theres a 3.2 knackered on the drivers side, stuff under the passenger seat might be ok. Thanks for the tip!
