Vs: 200tq won't run

[Jukka Majanen]

Otto Hi!

Sorry, I forgot that CD You´ve sent me, I´ll fix the situation just now.

About Your 200: I´m pretty sure You have cheked the vacuum leaks
and the movement of the air mass plate?

Even everything refers to a fuel problem, there is another possibility.
I had in my old ( not Audi, but same CIS and TCI ) turbo just same 
kind of symptoms.

The reason was a bad TCI switch unit. Propably it was well when cold,
but just when it started to lead, it went short and engine died. Again,
after a minute, it cooled down and the engine started but died in few
seconds.

Not pretty sure, but wanted to share my two pennies. Good Luck.
