Jethro:
Thanks Buddy,
Yeah the motor and car are both SMICK and I couldn't be happier with our purchase, just need to get the thing running sweat. New plugs, new leads, new injectors, fuel filter is clean third batch of fuel......Have decide to put some more klm's on her and than take her to S.R. Performance.
All the best for christams!

If this is crapped out it will retard the timing 20 deg
but you usually have to fry it by jump starting or something like that.
The thingy on the side of the throttle body is a throttle position sensor (TPS) and should read a certain voltage at idle (0.6????) and a certain amount at WOT.
What do your plugs look like?
What is your fuel pressure set at? How new is your fuel filter?
Sounds like a good motor! (88's came with alloy heads)

Could be a bad vacuum leak as there are heaps of hoses and if it is anything like a gen3 there are moulded rubber junctions that can fail
BOSCHVETTE:
it could also be the MAF (mass air flow) sensor.there is a good chance that it is stuffed.
