---- radio shack tools. I bought a xytronic 988 temp control soldering / desoldering station from Howard Electronics and it rocks. It was ~$300 refurbished, but by far the best value for money in a tool I've purchased in a long time. Done literally a hundred+ ECUs since w/ no problems.

I have 3 hf ecu's so i was planning on messing with those. So you think I'll be alright with the radio shack one. What kind of pump do you recommend for picking up the solder.
