Hi Folks;
We just got my 1.6 turbo engine installed in my 90 Fox 2 door wagon. We had
pulled the head and cleaned things up but otherwise it as I bought it at an
auction at Enamclaw WA this spring. The owner had died so I have no idea how
long the engine set since it was pulled with all accessarys from a car. We
fired the engine yesterday and after the usual bleeding and fussing it
starts readily. The problem is that it starts runs smooth and dies soon
thereafter( Very soon). It doesn't respond to throttle movement. It was late
when we did it so we will try again today. Anyone have any ideas?
