To bump the tread and add my issues to it:
I had cold starting trouble where the car would either start, or just go Vroop, and then refuse to start for a 24 hrs.
On suggestions I changed the temp 11 and connector. Now my symptoms are as described earlier.
Cold starting require a bit of cranking, but then it starts. However, till it warms up a bit I can't apply throttle and it's clear the engine has no power.
In another thread ( that I didn't save) someone gave the hot and cold resistances for the temp 11. If anyone has those available and can share that will be great.
I am planning a top end refresh in the coming weeks and hope to not add to the issue.

further bump.
haven’t solved my problems yet with the car stalling when it runs. It won’t restart unless I jumpstart it with another car then it starts right up. Also sometimes when it ran and I shut it down it wouldn’t start unless it was jumped.
I feel it’s an electrical issue, the car just cuts out when running. Maybe The electrics are cutting out which causes the fuel pump to start. But then I would think it would start again on its own without having to jumpstart it. Without jumpstarting it the car just never catches, but it does turn over: it’s been two years now since I’ve done anything other than start the car every week or so. Now with all this going on I may take another crack at it starting with changing the battery ground, The 14 point connector, and anything else electrical I can think of that might help. Any ideas?
