Fiat Ritmo Abarth Major Problem

Hello everyone!

I'm having a rather irritating problem with my Fiat Ritmo (Strada) Abarth 130tc 86'. When cold, the engine starts just fine, but when it reaches about 85 - 90 degrees, the engine suddenly feels like stalling. Before this happens, the tachometer is running up and down from 0 - 8000 rpm, and it seems to follow my movement of the pedal. If I let the engine rest for a little while, i can drive a small distance, just to have the same problem after a short while. If i try to start the engine imidiatly after it has stalled, the rpm is following the startermotor the same way it followed the pedalmovement earlier. I'm in desperate need for help!

abarth wheels & steering. ia lowered. pg audio. refurnish.

projects: air intake. (used) seats. exhaust-repair. legal tint.

My Abarth is alive once again!!! The trick was to replace the digiplex (obviously. NOT) So if anyone is encountering a similar problem, this is one of the solutions.

Vrooom, Broommmmm!
