Re: [a2-16v-list] No power/low end on new 2.0 Once again

What are you running for ignition, CIS-E or Motronic?  Assuming it's  
CIS-E, you need to check to see if the
RPM dependent ignition advance is working, and then the vacuum  
advance, in that order.  This can also determine if
there's a problem with the knock sensors or their control unit.   
Follow the procedure starting on page 21 of the
ignition section in the Bentley.  But before you do that, do you have  
the correct distributor?  The Motronic distributor
is different from the CIS-E one.  It's really starting to sound like  
you may have an ignition advance issue.
