The engine speed sensor fault will come up with most German cars if the engine is not running and yes you're correct that you do the test with the engine switched off. So you can discard that code.

As for the OBD1 or 2. The easiest way to find out is to take a look at the throttle body.

Mine is on a '95 and has bits from both cars, inc OBD2 16pin connector, but OBD1 engine, wide arch kit, but also has the coil pack NOT the dizzy so Pearsy's way of diagnosing only gives you a rough idea.

Well I'm not sure to be honest, if it's not bringing up any fault codes it's hard to say.

Maybe do a few tests, Disconnect you're MAF and see if it's any worse. If it's exactly the same it points to the MAF.

To be perfectly honest I'm not sure how good these handheld scanners are. We use a snap-on one at work and I have VAG-COM at home on another laptop.

It might not make any difference or pull any other codes out, but I'd maybe get it checked again for other codes.

Without looking it's hard to say what to do next to be honest. Electrical sensors should come up with a fault code but if no others are being pulled out it's difficult.

When you say it stalls how exactly does it stall??

Does it stall if you have foot on accelerator or not?

Will it rev free before it stalls or lumpy?

It stalls as you put your foot down . But if you do it gently it and get it over a few thousand revs it run fine up and down but when u let it drop down to tick over and try to foot your foot down it stalls again . I have cleaned maf , checked ht and spark plugs and the coil packs looks in really good condition.

Please help

mine is OBD2 and i was getting bogging, hesitating and hunting but it never stalled. but mine is def OBD2 so has the electronically controlled idle control, i dont know if it would make such a difference to the OBD1 which i think is vac controlled? i dont know if this is the case im just thinking out loud see if it helps?
