Hey gang, so I was having problems with my KF. One day it randomly started after turning the car on after it had been running. The car was off for about 10 min. Upon starting it was very boggy and stumbles over itself on acceleration. We tried everything from tps, fpr, maf, fuel rail, manifold for cracks, and comp. test. All the things that you would think. So hey, why not go buy a New KF slap it in and try. First drive home, started again.. The car drove amazing for 5 months before all this. I'm running 1.8 Ecu, maf, ditsy, throttle body. And it's a 94 5 speed. Any help at this point is very much appreciated. Thanks again gang!

It's the internal from the 1.8, only 6 slots On the ditsy. Does that make any difference?
