Just installed new knock sensors on a 1994 855 Turbo, front at 3:00 and rear at 5:00. Also cleaned Throttle Body and Idle Air Control while I was in there, both were really gunky. It starts after 3-4 seconds of cranking and dies when I let go of the key. If I press the accelerator it revs up and there's a small pop so I let off and it dies. I'm pretty sure I have all the vacuum hose connected correctly, did I forget an electrical connection somewhere? The only code it throws is in A2, 325 - loss of memory, as I had the battery unhooked for a few days. Intake manifold leak?
