there are no ecu`s on older sprinters Electronic command unit or something like that means its a computer i have an almost 100% mechanical sprinter, with no ecu they dont have a crankwheel speed sensor, but if you change ratios, it would be like another car for you, depending on changes it can accelerate empty like a sport car but wouldnt have any cargo in it.
