Maybe we could collaborate on this issue. I am experiencing similar issues with my '86 740 B230 FT Wagon, it has a '89 Bertone motor in it, Bosch FI system.

1) I have a car that cranks
2) I have spark to the plugs
3) I have correct fuel pressure and a new FPR
4) I have no vacuum leaks
5) I have a used 007 AMM (one from the ABC Boneyard)
6) I have a whole new distributor post
7) I have a clean TB throat
8) No obstructions in the ait intake system
9) The Cold Temp flapper in the airbox is in the cold start position
10) Now wtf ? The car runs like it's choking on too much fuel (I think)
11) Or NOT enough air ?

Any other ideas ? I heard mention of a ground wire from the AMM to (someplace), since it's an electrical possibility to have a bad gorund and the AMM is indeed electrical would a bogus or lose/hi resistance ground to the AMM cause this symptom (I think yes !)

Where is the AMM harness grounded to ?
