Re: Ur-q with mind of it's own.



Thanks to everyone for suggestions.

It was the hard wired fuel pump.

New fuel pump relay fixed everything.
It looks like previous owner installed the wrong relay and/or was too cheap to
get the proper one.

Cheap is the word since I found what looks like 120k mile COPPER spark plugs
doing the igniting.
No wonder the car would not run properly.
Run a lot smoother but would not pick up RPM.
I also discovered the frequancy valve not working.
That would also explain why it's running like crap.
Are they expensive from the dealer, and how often do they fail?

TIA
