See picture for location under carpet under dash. If replacing it will need to be programmed by a mechanic for security system in order to start car.

After changing the control box no difference. No problem with the cold motor. After warming up the motor weak, or stops, and blow up into the chimney. Try to change the injectors now

Why not you scan for codes and check fuel pressure before doing that you guys waste so much money on good parts before doing the correct things auto parts scan s for free and you can check fuel pressure although you may need an adapter. auto parts rent the gauge. See link.

There is no code 8 it's either a p code or B code which a mechanic is going to have to get if it's an engine problem it will be a p code which auto parts can get for you then get back to us.
