Not trying to stir the pot here, but stories like this are why I changed my mind (at least for now) about installing an aftermarket EFI system in my '66. That was my original plan, and I installed the EFI fuel tank and plumbed my chassis for EFI, but decided to stick with a carburetor for now. There are just too many stories of ECUs fizzling out after a few months or a few years. IMO, the aftermarket companies have not yet reached an OEM level of reliability with their electronics. They can work well when functioning correctly, but it seems like there are a lot of people who say they have to spend just as much time fiddling with the EFI system on an ongoing basis as they did a carb, only the EFI systems are more complicated and expensive to repair.
