Will a 89 pick up truck ecu work in a 87 4runner?
I have a 89661-35070 it says 22R when i have a 22R-E in my 4runner and I keep getting a code 11. I pull the plug from the tps and it still gets the same problem.
I have a 89 toyota pick up 4wd with a part number 89661-35160
Will it cause any damage to the truck or ecu?

Not sure exactly, but there's a good chance it will work as long as the type of transmissions match, ie manual and a manual/automatic and automatic. I know that 87 ecu's work in 85's so you may be fine running an 89 in an 87. Here is a good link to search through:

this question comes up alot, while they may seem to work, what you have to watch out for is the fact the sensors on the motor are differen't. ie different resistances in the AFM, injectors etc etc.
here is a photo of the ECU part numbers from the 4crawler site that 89silverpu was referring to.

by the looks of those part numbers it some years it does matter, it was my understanding the engine's ecu sends the signals to the trans computer as to what TPS and other signals are so the trans computer knows what to do.
