Congratulations on the '85 ur-Q! There aren't too many '85s here in the
states,
I've only seen one other besides my own.
I had the same problem, it was a broken connection at the temp sensor in
the intake manifold right after the throttlebody. Resoldered the wire and
all was well.
This could also be caused by a bad temp sensor and/or other bad sensors
and is
a self-protection mode designed to save your engine.
