Need an electrical guru's help now. 86 245 200 1986

Ok,

I have posted a few times recently about my 245's problems.

a recap: The car will barely run with the AMM hooked up.

unhooking the AMM results in an easy start and idle.

So, I patched in a new ECU and the symptoms remained the same.

So then I broke down and got a replacement Air mass meter and thought for sure I would have things licked, but NOPE.

With the new AMM, the symptoms are the same. starts and idles without the AMM hooked up but with it hooked up, dies.


Anyway, the wiring harness I have installed is a replacement I bought in the fall from ebay.

It looked fine though, but I'm wanting to know of some possible things to trouble shoot in the wiring harness. I am pretty sure I hooked it all up properly. But now I'm worried that the problem may lie in the wiring.

Do any of you old pros have any suggestions?

I have 2 air mass meters, two ECUs, and i'm clueless :)
