Bob,
I just had the full 034 system installed by 034, read
no more MOTRONIC ECU. I also had the 034 Motorsport
Engine mounts installed.
Can you say, "NO GIVE WHATSOVER"? I also have a
Urethane snub mount. I suspect it's not that :-(
The ONLY thing that cuts out is the speedo and tach.
Heck today I even got the speedo to go 360 degrees
FORWARD, so that makes 180 MPH??? The motor's not
cutting out, ONLY the tach and speedo have gone
whacko.
