Subject:      Questions about DigifantII (NVC)
Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

I have a customers 89 Cabriolet that I am trying to troubleshoot. It is a Digifant II. It will start and then immediately die. It acts like the engine is flooding out. One wierd thing that it does is if you heat the coolant temp sensor (tempII) with a flame the car will run. However the temp sensor checks out OK when I check it with a meter, and also at the wiring harness plug. I have checked the timing, spark, fuel pressure (seems a little lower than stock but only 4 psi low) and the engine wiring harness. Everything seems to be right but the car still won't run. Any ideas? Is there a way to get a code out of the DigifantII ECU? The car has a code machine connector by the shifter but I can't get my vag-com software to communicate with this ECU. Any advice would be helpful.
