With everything you have done and not getting any codes for O2 sensors reading rich I just keep coming back to the ECU needing to be sent to ECU Exchange.

I’m just wondering, if this is a 91 Mass Air engine swapped into another vehicle, if all of the grounds are property installed? Like the one for the O2 sensor harness, the one for the ECU, etc. Missing grounds can look like ECU problems. Just a possibility.

Updated 05 July 2022 to add rough idle when cold and smooth idle when up to normal operating temperature. See the EGR tech information, section #15 for more help.
Many of you are familiar with the "Cranks OK, but No Start Checklist for Fuel Injected Mustangs" checklist and the No Crank Checklist. They are very effective in finding and eliminating the problems by use of a systematic process that checks and eliminates possible causes. This idle problem checklist will use the same troubleshooting strategy and methodology.
By the term surging idle, I mean an idle that...
Let us know what portions of these tests are bad and give a shout if there is some portion of the checklist that gives you trouble.
When the engine of my car gets warm, it starts idling very poorly and the engine stops.
It won't even restart. At that time, I measured the ECT voltage and Ω. 4.8kΩ for 1.2v. n the scanner tool, 40, 15, and 12 returned, but they disappear again.
I measured the compression again, checked the plug (black), and tried installing a different plug cord, but the symptoms are the same. View: https://youtube.com/shorts/WeLeM2Z8VFg?feature=share
