Engine stalling 700 1985

posted by  someone claiming to be Mike Craig on  Sat Sep 15 08:00 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I am in the process of trying to fix the wife's 1985 760 Turbo Wagon. I have already read the FAQ's. The problem is this: When cold the car will start and run perfectly for 3 - 5 minutes then suddenly stall. At first I thought that it was just completely dying out but, on the second day of working on it I was able a couple of times to keep it running by rapidly feathering the throttle. The fuel pump can be heard to come on and shut off like it is supposed to. What really baffles me is that when the car is cold it will start and run perfectly EVERY time till warm. I have access to another car and have already tried swapping out the FP relay, mass-air, coil, power stage module, and the jetronic computer on the pass side kick panel to no effect. Any helpful tips will be greatly appreciated.

Mike
