I posted about a week or so ago on a cold start problem... almost all FI components were check, re-check and-or replace on that van: http://www.benplace.com/85westy.htm The problem was: To start the van i had to press the gas pedal to the floor, even then... after start, poor running with frequent stall or near stall for about 4 minutes until engine was warm enough... after that, a perfect runner. I won't explain everything that i did to find this problem, but one thing, i had no spare digijet (no i have some comming, thanks to the list) AFM and no computer, but the reading/test was postive when i tested the AFM Well, the AFM was the main problem... a leaky injectors didn't help also. But, be aware that the AFM may not always be the reason for a cold start problem, many others components could and are often THE reason... now we know that the AFM is one of them. I hope this could help a few! Now, since this AFM is giving me good reading (voltmeter), i will split open this one and see if this could be fixed. Men i sound so serious.... oufffff... I am still the coruptor! a tamed one.. :-))) Cheers, Ben http://www.benplace.com/vw2.htm
