Al, Bruce, and Lance;
Dammm it's been a long time since we all met up at Kensington Metro Park in Michigan. I have been inactive here for about three years and I am impressed at how the community has grown. Well I am mainly writing this post to validate the long term operation of my Megasquirt ECU's. Since 2004 I have assembled two mega squirts (a MS1 ver 1 board w/ flyback mod, and a MS1 ver 2.2) The version 1 ecu has been in service on my CJ7 for about 80,000 miles and after my initial tuning has needed no service. I have never had such a reliable ECU. The other ECU has been in service since 2005 and has been in two vehicles with a total service mileage at around 120,000 miles. Since it has been ages since the original meetup (5 years.) we should have a every 5 year return to Michigan.... anywho cheers. I am looking forward to the MS III and can't wait to test that bad beast out!!!

Re: WoW - Long Term Reliability
hey guys. just checking in again. I still have the cj and my original ms from 2004ish is still running great. so now it's been in service for about 7 years and over 150,000 miles. I am thinking about upgrading it to MS3 but I almost want to prove my original MS1 will last forever. Talk to you guys soon!

Bryan,
Thanks for the great data point. Maybe we can get a film clip of you for advertising - Toyota and other big OEMs do it
