check engine light on 93 90cs

[Joel Lenorovitz]

In my case, I just did have all the injectors replaced as part of the recall and the
ECU was reset with no positive effect on the stalling or fuel mixture codes coming
up.  The dealer didn't think that would be likely to help.  Looks like my next step
is to clean the ISV and check all the hoses I can.

By the way, if you swing by your dealer you can fill out a form for a free 3M
windshield/finish cleaning kit with a clay bar courtesy of Audi.
