Re:desoldering an obd0 ecu
Willahlborn...I just bought 4 ZIFs(damn digikey minimum orders) and have one left over if you want it. I'll sell it to you at cost ($6.50 plus shipping) if you only need one. let me know

Low cost ZIF sockets - $5.25 per
Aries Universal Test socket - $8
No minimum order, but I'd highly recommend getting $50 worth for the Free Digital Multimeter
I bought This Temp controlled Soldering station and a few sockets. It makes a HUGE difference and $35 is a pretty good price for what you get. I've seen much cheaper soldering stations that go for more.

Re:desoldering an obd0 ecu
Not to jump in on anyone..
..but, PLEASE be careful about what ZIF sockets you buy. Just "any old ZIF" isn't going to work.
Currently, a customer shipped me thier ECU, and the ZIF they sent me was entirely too large.
It is recommended (for OBD0 at least.. I don't know about OBD1 for certain) that you use the ZIF socket mentioned in the Engine Management FAQ, section 4 from DigiKey. Part number is included.
This is because there is a peice right above where the EEPROM fits into the PCB that has has to be bent out of the way slightly even for the Aries to fit.
Look at this comparison of the one the customer sent me, vs the DigitKey (Also an Aries). That "Test Socket" isn't going to in any way shape or form, fit.
