Ok, so yesterday the AE started. I started it a few times, ran it around the block, etc. Notice digi dash was off, but been there before.
On running, the only thing I noticed was that on acceleration it bogs down if I push the pedal too fast. But if I slowly accelerate it picks up speed normal. This is right about the moment when I expect to notice the turbo. So, then, this am...
Digi dash still off. I have a spare power unit. I remove mine, plug spare. With it hanging down I test, all comes on except fuel. I screw it up under the dash and replace the panel. I go to start the car :
A) car wont start. Cranks fast, no start. Only now seems different. After I let go of the key I feel one, two or three "lurches", like it is trying to fire.
B) Only part of the dash is now on. But one of the few lights on is fuel low. So I went got 5G just in case.
Come home. Add fuel. Remove under panel to digi dash power supply, but don't touch anything... now...
A) Full dash comes on, including the fuel. Shows full. :-O
B) crank is the same. Cranks healthy, but no fire. Still lurches after I let go of the key. One two or three times.
On the dash I am thinking it could be the wires or plug. When I move the panel around might be moving the wires or plugs in and out a bit, just enough to make contact.
On the start I am now considering this seems more like a MAF thing. It has plenty of fuel. I have tested fuel pump is ok. It was starting yesterday right away, but it wasn't running very smooth.
So, I left the panel off for access to digi power unit, to continue debugging this. Any opinions/ideas very welcome.
