Clean the RSRelay coil ground connection mentioned in the 2 links below.

On my 940 NA it's behind the right headlight on the inner fender wall. On your Turbo it will be on the left side. If the RSR drops out, the Turbo cars lose power to injectors AND the coil (just the injectors on NA cars).

GEEZER PUZZLED.

This one too. (Photos in this one)

As a quick check, bypass the RSR with a jumper wire in the harness plug — the 2 larger sockets for the Red and Red/Green wires. If the problem goes away, then it was related to the RSR.
