Default Shout out to Ott's performance!

Title says it all. Great experience, quick reply to my problems and symptoms. Mailed my possibly defective LH computer and had it tested found defective and a replacement mailed back shortly. Installed in a day. Car runs much better and very happy. Hats off!

Thanks very much! I really like helping to get broken 928s back on the road.

Louie is top of the pops in my book. Without his help I would never had gotten the Hanson race car rocket off the ground. For the life of me I can't understand why he hasn't been made a Lifetime Member yet!

Well the car started getting poor fuel economy, then continued to get worse. Backfiring, large clouds of black smoke out of the tail pipe. Horrible idle. When I would brake hard the car would just die. Since its my DD I started driving with two feet one to brake and the other to maintain idle while turning and idling at stop lights. Needless to say it was very unpleasant.

I replaced the MAF, 02 sensor,checked the temp pressure sender and idle switch under the intake manifold. Nothing helped.

Once I changed the LH computer all the problems disappeared.
