Thanks for all the quick feedback. I have ordered the kit from 034 (just
don't have time to source all the parts.)
I've had a couple of POS failures, and they were always "digital" in nature
and independent of engine speed and load. I did have one that worked again
after cooling down, but it failed completely the next day. I've been
running for the last couple years with a used "2-channel" POS!
The gradual nature of this problem leads me to believe it is a coil. Of
course, it is possible I have a POS biting the dust, too. Either way I'm
covered with the 1.8t conversion.
Before Dave F. pioneered the conversion, I was trying to figure out how to
make the stock POS be more reliable (heatsink, cooling fan, mount in airbox,
etc.) or come up with a POS replacement using discrete parts.
But I'm willing to try a solution that kills two birds with one stone!
