930 Problems HELP!!!

A week ago I bought an 87 930 with the mods listed below. I have put about 600 miles on it and it runs great...but...

The first day I had it after running it for a couple of hours it would not restart. It cranked fine, I thought I smelled fuel but it wouldn't fire up. I checking the wires and eventually it started. I chalked it up to maybe me pumping the pedal after the initial try and flooding it or a loose wire. I found a red wire that seemed to have become seperated froma connection where it looks to be attached to a overboost sensor. There is also a yellow wire thta is stilkl attahed in that area. You can see where the red was "tacked" into to it previously. PO was called and he had no idea. I electric taped the red wire and drove for the next few days without incident.

Last night I was cruising along in 2nd at about a constant 300-3500 rpm's trying to dodge deer on my road when I heard a"clunk" the car bucked and then died.

I have tried starting several times last night and this afternoon with no luck. Where should I start????????? I bought a wire brush and plan on changing fuses and cleaning contacts. I may also try to "rerigging that red wire. It is located just south of the intercoolers tube on the far drivers side rear of the car so it's hard to reach or photo with the intercooler installed. How hard is the intercooler to remove???

Thanks in advance.
