I have a 1992 Madza B2200 Extended Cab 5 speed standard pu. I am having computer problems which I believe could be fuel related. The original computer starts the truck without a hitch, however it runs really bad...Bought a good used computer but it wont' start the truck. I have to start the truck with the original computer, let it run for a few minutes then switch to the used computer. The truck runs great with the used computer it just won't start it.....
any ideas on what the prob could be.....really need your help...

Computer (ECU, ECM, Black box, whatever you want to call it) problems are common in these trucks. Go here for an explanation:
http://www.avproecm.com/mazda.htm. FWIW, if you decide to have your ECM rebuilt, I highly recommend AvPro. I sent the bad ECM for my '93 B2600 to a cheap rebuilder found on eBay. He returned it after a week as 'not rebuildable.' Got on the net and found another 'rebuilt'. It failed in less than a month. Finally went to AvPro, which I should have done in the first place. They rebuilt the original "unrebuildable" one the same day they got it and returned to me immediately. It has worked flawlessly.
