Hi Johannes You've helped me before, and it sounds like you have the solution for me again. Could you be a little more specific in helping me locate this plug. My wifes car starts a little rough, and has stalled in the past. It doesn't stall anymore, but is rough upon starting. Her car is a 1996 900S turbo. Here is your origional post to refresh your memory>>>>Agree with your analysis. I have a 9000, the problem with the AMM (air mass meter) was simply in the electrical plug connection. However, with the age of the car, the head gasket could also come into consideration. Johannes Ken Washington wrote: > > I used to have an 87 900S 16V 5 spd.
