Belt tension warning light??
#16
Light was added for 85 ROW 16V, as well as for the new 32V cars.
Seems there is a good chance its interference, so I'd assume it.
Disassemble and go through it, piece by piece.
Takes a weekend and a few tools. Prerequisite of ownership, well, usership. Simplest thing to work on, car-wise, on his long laundry list of special high end cars.

Under hard acceleration is when the warning light usually triggers for a belt that is marginally too low on tension. Get it sorted by someone who knows 928's.
If the problem was electrical, then it would happen at low rpm's too (just not for 3 minutes after starting the car - the warning is delayed that much by the car)

Yes - highest factory-rated compression of all the 928's on the 85-86 Euro 4.7L at 10.4:1
The later '84 euros are also the high compression interference motor too - there was a mid-year piston change. a search of rennlist will bring up the engine numbers Porsche documented for the change for the auto and manual engine number series'
From 80 to early '84 the K-jet "Euro" 4.7L 928S are non-interference as long as there isn't significant carbon buildup.
