As is normally the case, the "NOT///MPOWER" 318is has presented me with another problem to fix before the next track weekend. The 'check engine' light comes on when lifting off the throttle, and the engine runs really rich, and hunts for a steady idle. If the engine is put under load, the light goes off & it runs normally for the most part, but modulating the throttle is difficult. The first 1/2" of accelerator pedal travel results in no acceleration, then suddenly it's on, and the car accelerates.
This makes maintenance throttle through turns quite difficult. I've got 9 days until I'm back at VIR (this time with the Audi Club), but am confident that I can track down, and fix the problem before then.
