A common problem on here.

I had my ECU plugged in properly and it solved it (the wanring light disappeared)...for 150 miles anyway - it came back on! But, I took some advice on how to start my engine. Previously it took some convincing to start and there was an emission warning light on. NOW, I turn the key to ignition to prime the fuel pump, leave it there for a few moments, then turn all the way - not only does the car start pretty pronto, the emission light disappeared after a few trips.

Try it!
