1989 Audi 90 Quattro Motor Problems

Any one out there know about these cars/motors … I have a issue

Car will not “rev” above idle (1k) when you push the gas it just smokes like it is running pig rich but the tach will not move

MODS IF IN WRONG PLACE MOVE PLEASE

If you post on dubsinthebuff I’m sure you will get your answers faster. There is a group of 3 or 4 members there that seem to know everything about these cars.

I do not need one more fourm

Well then I guess you are willing to wait for an answer, if you even get one here.:shrug:

This man speaks the truth.

so good luck with this.

Could be a million things on that bastard 5cyl.

Oh my fucking stars can someone be that guy and post it over there for me

No.

K thanks

It is more than likely the distributive fuel pressure regulator which is on the front of the air box held in place with 2 screws and has an electrical connection going to it. Or it is the fuel pressure regulator which is that little canister looking thing that has fuel lines going in/out of it with banjo fitting that have allen heads on them. Or, check the fuse box. On my 4000 Quattro there is a fuse, commonly called the “spare fuse” as it is opposite the other fuses and in the middle of where spare fuses are stored. Well, that fuse controls the ECU, without it the car runs like you are describing. Hope this helps.

I should have put in there … the first 30 seconds it runs perfect

Distributive fuel pressure regulator. I have spares if you need one. I mean, the car is shot, sell it to me for $100.

This man speaks the truth. CIS FTL

CIS > most pre-OBD engine management.

I have owned 5 cars that had CIS. It’s not hard to work on or tune once you learn a little about it.

Not hard at all. Doesn’t mean it doens’t suck up here because 95% of the vehicles with it are rust buckets and you can’t get half of the parts off. Trust me i work on euro’s for a living.

Just get rid of the car and give it to me. Then you won’t have a problem anymore.

no if anyone if fliping this car it is me in my yard

but if you really wana buy it pm me

Haha I didn’t flip it! :frowning:
