Ok, I understand. But that cant be it cuz I jumped the fuel pump strait to the battery. I will try it again, I will also give the fuel pump a new ground.

thanks,

For fast idle I'm using the stock fast idle valve on the intake manifold.
Yes running EDIS. Not verified cuz VW's have the worst timing setup.
It does start, and runs strong for a couple seconds so if the timing was off I would think it would just run bad or weak.

Haven't tested it in any other condition other than about 80 deg farenheit with high humidity

Tried it, same thing.

Thanks, Draco12369! I'll give it a shot

Let me know if you figure it out, I have a similar setup and a similar problem. Mine dies after 3 seconds.

Thanks,

Yes, the stock ecu is still controlling the fuel pump.

But, thats not the problem. I jumped the fuel pump strait to the battery and it changed nothing.

ms1 v2.2 Msns-Edis, 91 vw Corrado G60.

Cranks good, starts good, dies all of a sudden after 3 seconds. played with the tuning, either way I go, more or less fuel does the same thing. More or less timing, same thing.

Any Ideas?

Thank You,

Phil

How? My MS should be in the virgin state.

Do I need to remove the jumper from XG1 to XG2? I read some wiring schematics on some other forums and they are wacky.

I'm gonna cry
