  19. That's all you need to know. A faulty ecm means the computer that controls
  20. your electronic everythings on the engine is dead, dying or diseased. The 
  21. fix is to replace it. If the car has less than 50k miles on it, take it to
  22. the dealer - this is an emissions-related freebie. Otherwise, buy one.
