[urq] Help: 200 20V cut-out

[Buchholz, Steven]

I've got no familiarity with the Euro vesions of the 200, but it sounds like
something that happened on my 5kCSQA ... a massive leak in the crankcase
vent tun\bing was the cause of the stalling ... perhaps the euro cars have
this same sort of set up ... or perhaps not!

Happy hunting!
