So first off I have 98 Audi Quattro sport package 5spd
and the problem I’m having is that the car starts the rpm’s jump to about 2k then drop immediately and dies not too sure what to try I have no codes even with a vag com I thought maf but here is the wierd part I unplugged the maf and the car doesn’t start at all just cranks but my understanding the car should start just would run a little rough and get crappy gas mileage and if I give it a little gas it will jump to 2k and drop to almost dying but then jumps back to 2k and repeat and if I give it a lot of gas like to get it to go over 4K it kinda runs better but not a whole lot
