I purchased a home in Cape Coral, FL and I am contemplating converting my 320 to a closed cooled system for when I move it down to Florida. In getting quotes I had a marina service person advise me that I have to change the ECM's on both engines to convert them "otherwise the engines will not run right"? From what I understand the ECM's are the brain of a fuel-injection system. It controls the fuel and airflow as well as the engine timing and spark curve. Why would the ECM's need to be changed to convert to a closed cooling system? Or was he trying to jack the cost of converting the engines? Can anyone provide me guidance on this, so I am not wasting hard earned money on something that does not have to be replaced. I thank all of you for your input and guidance on this matter.
