Left the house tonight in the 1990 245. It's a 5-spd, but LH 2.4 for certain. As we pulled out of the driveway, I immediately noticed the car was running poorly under load. Was running fine an hour earlier. Starts fine.

Acceleration OK, but rough and not what it usually is. When I got home (at 3:00am) I checked for codes. From the FI, I got: a 2-3-1 (rich/lean at cruise) and 3-1-2 (missing knock signal from ICU), and from the ICU I got a 2-1-4 (bum/missing RPM sensor signal).

She's definitely running lean. Vacuum/intake hoses are new. The RPM sensor is brand spanking new (maybe two weeks old). Knock sensor status is unknown.

Before I start digging in tomorrow, I figured I'd ask: Has anyone had this combination of codes before?

Any thoughts? Thanks!

-Ryan
