Agh, car starts then dies... what is up?
It's not the AFM... I've tried a working AFM from another friend's T2. I can't find any vac leaks... He couldn't find any... Spark is good. Car was rebuilt a year and a half ago and has ran great the whole time. It's getting fuel...
THOUGH.... I do have this information at least... When we started it one time, we held the afm flap in a little and the car was able to idle. So we figured maybe my exhaust was clogged... Being 19 years old and having gone some time w/o the air pump hooked up to it.
So I just took the excuse to go ahead and do my exhaust. Well I've got 3 inch exhaust all the way back now... And it's still the same. Does anyone have any other suggestions of what it could be?
