Title: Problems again....
Post by: GTI16vGaz on 01 December 2003, 16:41

Afternoon..

Another question about my 16v mk2.

This morning for some reason i put my foot flat on the fast button and the car didn't even pick up and then it did, there was a delay of about 7 seconds before the power kicked in (It sounds like petrol wasn't getting through)??.. once the car was running it was fine it didn't do it again. I had the same problem on my 8v but this was related to the fuel pipe connecting to the injection system it come lose so it was sucking air in to which caused it to stall or not move when foot was flat..

Has any1 experienced this or has any1 any idea's

Cheers,

Garry

Is it running lean? My 8v used to be like that till i got the petrol mixture sorted.
