  1. First Post, first time owning a Subaru - and I spent at least an hour searching to do my best to make sure this wasn't a duplicate post. My apologies if this has been posted before, but I did my best. I purchased a seemingly clean 1983 Subaru Brat (108K original miles) after searching for many years for the right one. It ran great when purchased, still runs great, but trying to get it to pass Colorado emissions is my only challenge. It leaked oil bad, so bad that the amount dripping on the exhaust caused the emissions testing facility to stop testing cause of the smoke caused by the oil on the tail pipe (no smoke out of the tail pipe). I remedied this by removing the engine and replacing all the gaskets on the engine - no leaks or issues on the re-install, fired right back up. In doing the engine removal, I noticed that the O2 Sensor had no wire attached to anything, in fact no wire at all coming from the sensor. So, I bought an O2 sensor, and was referring to the manual to try to figure out where it hooks to on the wiring harness, and couldn't find the lead. Upon further inspection (supposed to be a Red/White wire on the harness that splits to the middle of the engine compartment), I noticed that there was a lack of a thing the book refers to as the ECM. I see the triangle bolt pattern where something was supposed to exist, but there is no ECM. Despite this, the car runs great and I have no complaints and love it to death. I am however, faced with a quandary. Do I try to get a salvaged ECM off of ebay or used Subaru parts shop and try to hook it up (looking at more work than I ever imagined with a hopeful and successful outcome), or will I set fire to my wiring harness and beloved brat by trying to hook up something that a previous owner has evidently intentionally deleted. I know there are a broader range of possibilities than those, but those are my main fears. At this point, I'd just like it to pass emissions. Any help or guidance would be appreciated. Thanks, BratFanBoy10023
