Got the throttle body cleaned, adjusted and back on.

Then had to fix the inlet air temperature sensor.

Fortunately our 83 has one that looks like it was a replacement once. Ohms check check out too.

A bit of electrical shenanigans and it's in.

Then there was nothing left to do but call the Audi guru, Werner then fire it up!

Doesn't idle yet and still needs coolant but we had a little celebration anyway.
