ECM & PCM both refer to the computer. ECM (Engine Control Module) was used before the transmission was electronic. Once the computer started controlling the trnsmission it became PCM (Powertrain Control Module)

if the only problem is the pcm, then i would just look for a new one. (or used rather). i'm sure Brad, (sandrock) will give you a good deal.
maybe just part out the 95. bc you can't ust the 95 pcm, and eng, w/o changing the wiring to the pcm in ur 92.

Even with a replacement PCM, unless it'* the eprom socket that is an issue, you'll need an eprom specific to your year, engine, and trans (final drive) ratio.
