This will prompt a long thread!  Make sure the connection to the air flow
meter is fully attached.  It's likely some sort of fuel problem either from
a large vacuum leak or something came unplugged.

Subject: Starts then dies. What to check?

85 1.9L. Running fine this morning. Time to come home from work. Starts,
dies. Won't start with throttle open. Dies if I try to give it gas. I'm not
out of gas, and there seems to be plenty of pressure at the "t". What else
to check?
