Default Does an ECU get "run in", and do ICS's "stick"?

I'm getting to near the end of my patience.

Those who remember my prevous post re dizzy or coil may like to know that in the end it was ECU sending out wrong voltages to the ignition module. The wiring was absolutely FKKED and so a new loom and ECU was installed.

1) The car runs really rough now: very unsteady idle.

Mechanic advised that the ISC needs replacing as it "sticks". ie When he knocked it with a screwdriver, it went from 1500RPM down to a normal idle.

Later on, on the way home, the car wouldn't go above 2500RPM in 2nd gear, but when I changed gear, I could go above that. Sticky ICS?

2) Since it has a new ECU, how long does it take to "learn"?

How can I tell that they put the correct ECU in? Is there a code, etc on the ECU itself?
