    Sounds like it was only running on the cold start injector...

    Have you tested/changed the tachymetric (sp?) relay? Can you check to see if the injectors are pulsing?

    Subject: Turbogas wagon puzzler

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm looking for suggestions re the almost-running-but not-quite-
    problem w my 86 N9te wagon with the following symptoms:
    Recently, the engine would start, but then die after 2-3 mins of
    warmup. During warmup, it could not rev past 1500 rpm, then 1200, then
    <1,000 [but microswitch on t/housing seems ok, clicks?].
    This state then deteriorated further to where now, the engine just
    acts like it might start [gives a few chuggs], but won't. I replaced
    the fuel filter, engine temp sensor on the t/stat housing and airflow
    meter, checked all vac lines/connectors and air intake boot for leaks.
    Distributor and plugs/wires seem ok.
    The O2- sensor was completely fouled-up w fresh black soot and
    replaced w a known-good [used] one, but ofcourse the symptoms
    remain the same ...
    What's left? Faulty injection/ignition relais and/or ECUs... bad gas
    in tank, plugged up cat, turbocharger not spinning freely?
    Educated guesses or better will be greatly appreciated : ]
