    Angry vl wont start with AFM plugged in

    i've been trying to get my vl (non turbo) to start. it will start no problems with the AFM unplugged, but wont rev. then as soon as i plug it in again it stalls and wont start again.

    and if i do manage to get it started, it sounds like the timing is out and just stalls again, but i've adjusted the timing already.

    i've checked the codes and i get 12, 14, 24, 31, and 32.

    12, afm circuit
    14, speed sensor circuit
    24, neutral start switch circuit
    31, satisfactory non a/c, non satisfactory a/c
    32 starter signal circuit.
    I would start with a working air flow meter.
