    I didn't mean that it would run *well*, just that those are the bare minimum requirements for it to run at all.

      It will do that with no TPS signal since the ECU "thinks" it's always at partial throttle. Same thing happens when the WOT switch goes bad in them.

      Are you using the IAT in the AFM for the MS, or did you wire in a GM sensor? For the Motronic to run properly, you would need to reverse all the modifications you did for MS. Nando was just saying it would "run" with those sensors.
