Post HELP - ALL I DID IS CHANGE SPARK PLUGS

HELP - ALL I DID IS CHANGE SPARK PLUGS on a 1984 Euro 928S. Which I have done before without any problems. However, when I start up it won't idle and just dies if I step on the accelerator.

By removing the air filter and mass air flow sensor and connectors, it will run around 3500 rpm but is running very rich.

Anybody have an idea of what went wrong?


Thanks,
Steven

You have apparently pulled a vacuum hose loose from somewhere.

The obvious is to double check and trace all your wires to make sure you have not crossed up a plug wire.
