easy way to reset car?
i know that unplugging the battery will reset everything, but my battery connections are almost impossible to get off, so is there a fuse i can pull.

my car never ran properly after i unplugged the battery from the car to do my starter a while back, so i'm thinking if i reset everything and go for a half hour freeway drive to reset everything it should run better

Try pulling the fuse for the ECM for 30 seconds and see if that helps.

1991 3.1 has fuse on passenger fender for ease of reset. Not sure if yours does or not.

The fuse box under the dash should have a 10 amp fuse marked ECM on the box.
