1986 Audi Coupe GT review from North America
"An eye-catcher, powerful ride"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel injector distribution sensor burnt out.
General comments?
Bought the car on August 2000.
Car is in immaculate shape, inside-out.
The car had a hard cold start when I first purchased it, and would loose power at about 3000-3500 rpms. After replacing the sensor, it runs like new. Have not seen another one like it. Have been told that most owners decide to keep them and restore them. That explains how hard parts are to find. Found out that I have a 15 gal fuel tank which means that it's an imported UK version.
