Not no help per se, silence usually = you'll find it with a search.

This was just covered last month BTW, hint = ECU.
 

So now the qs is if its my ecu or ics or what ever will the ecu from my 90 fwd car work in my 90 awd car?
 

hello guys I do need help with this and im a noob with the 90 i understand there are alor of diff. from other car years please help me is it my ecu ... the idle sits at 500 when the ac is on and runs like hell .. when the ac is off it does run better but at top end around 4k it does seem to have a miss ????? searches do me no help with all the acranyms forgive my spelling as well thank you

How should we know if it's your ECU or not?

Did you post pics of your ECU for us to check out? Have you tested a known good ECU? Have you tested the ISC with a multimeter ?
 

what is an isc .. prev reply i got states issue was already cover and to do all these searches .. also there are alot of diff with the 90 talon .. i can test with my ecu from my 90 laser but its fwd not awd like my talon sory for being so dumb

I don't believe fwd/awd makes a difference (someone correct me of I'm wrong)

The ISC is your idle speed controller, it plugs into the bottom half of your throttle body. Vfaq.com and look up how to test it.
