When I put a new computer in, is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening again?

I'm referring to is there something I can do to keep this new ECU from getting fried like the last one? When it gets hot you can put your ear up to the ECU and you can hear sizzling. I guess I can try to make something to keep heat away from it.

Some just go bad...not much else you can do. You really don't want to cut and splice the PCM wires.

Yes it works, but your mileage will suck. I still agree with everyone else, sounds like an overheating fuel pump to me, but maybe we are wrong...
