Well I did it!  talked the now previous owner to a reasonable price for
his 1990 90 Quattro 20v :)  OK well its quite nice but has a few
issues... so a little help from ya'll would be appreciated.

Issue #1 during cruising at around 60-70 mph the car seems to surge and
subside ever so slightly, almost like a gust of wind is hitting the car
but the tach is remaining constant.  Doesn't happen during acceleration
or deceleration.

Issue #2 Car accelerates greatly to 7000 rpm in 1st gear no problem, 2nd
no problem, but in 3rd the car hesitates at about 4000 rpm, but then
continues to a good acceleration at 4500-5000 rpm and has the same
problem in gear 4 and 5...

Issue #3 when cold the engine idles quite well, but when warm it idles a
little rough.

ok well those are the immediate issues... I would grrrreatly appreciate
your help!

Ciao!
