The car will start, but you'll get the transmission light on.

Not sure about the 4.4, but definately a problem on the 4.3 - if you look at the ECU circuitry there are bits missing on the manual ECUs.

ECU is a 4.3 1995 855 and i might have chance of a similar age 855GLE with a lot less miles than mine for not that much more than its going to cost me to get mine back to A1 condition and was hoping to straight swap the ECU,s then sell mine for the price of a set of volans and tyres!!!!!
