I know Kurt M tracked down a loose connection on my car last Fall that wasn't apparant until he lightly tugged the wire and it fell right out of the crimped connector. That was a wire leading from alternator to starter, if I remember correctly. Roundabout way of say check all the wires/ connectors around starter and alternator (will require elevating car).

So....my friendly P-car mechanic is paying me a house call tomorrow. He says he's bringing a new "computer" for the car.

What else might I invite him to bring with him for the in-house surgery?

New flywheel sensor?
New AMP Junior Timer connectors?
New fuel pump?
New DME? (I already swapped out the relay)

From previous posts, I gather that he should check all the connectors in the engine bay, the speed and the ref sensors, the connectors on the main FI parts - throttle body, etc.

In addition, make sure:

- Throttle position reads fine
- AFM is fine
- Speed sensor resistance is in range
- Position sensor is in range
- Cylinder Head Temp is in range (this is a likely culprit, BTW, esp if you still have the old 1 wire sensor)
- test the sensors at the DME connector itself to make sure the entire circuit is functional.
- Bad coil - test resistance.

Am I forgetting anything?
