many thanks for your help and advice

I wonder if you are experiencing condensation your gas. Maybe try adding a fuel preservative and top it off with the highest octane gas you can find. Or drain the tank. Disconnect the battery for a 1/2 hr. or so and try driving it again. Just a guess....

They are located under the intake manifold. It's simular to the process required to get to the starter. It's big bucks on labor. Usually a 1100+ bill from the dealership to replace both. I just had to replace mine and had to pay 900. I got the same check engine like you and everything, but I have 32K more miles than you on my GS. Limp mode time. No reading for 2000-5600rpms.
