HELLO ALL, I AM NEW TO THE FORUM AND AN AUDI TOO. i AM PICKING UP A 1990 QUATTRO V8 FOR PRETTY CHEAP. PROBLEM AS THE OWNER TELLS ME IS CAR RUNS AOK FOR A LITTLE WHILE THEN DIES AND WON'T RE START FOR 30-40 MINS..hOT COIL PACK? SOMETHING MUST BE GETTING HOT SOMEWHERE...BUT THATS NOT ALL SHE SAYS THE OTHER DAY IT WAS RUNNING REAL GOOD ALL SEEMED WELL, THEN IT WANTED TO ACCELERATE AND OVER REV ALL ON ITS OWN..THEY SHUT IT DOWN AND PUSHED IT BACK INTO THE GARAGE AND HAVE NOT TRIED SINCE..ANY IDEAS? HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD SIMILAR PROBS? I LIKE THE CAR AND WOULD LIKE TO SAVE IT..PLEASE HELP!! THANKS!!!
