Car Cut Out At Traffic Lights

[Grand Master Patch]

I'll scan it and see what comes up.

[Grand Master Patch]

Right oh,just got back from having my car scanned and it came up with two faults,the MAF(could be an old fault as i have a brand new one on),and a fuel mixture fault.How can i check the fuel mixture?

[topher]

thats possibly the result of your old knackered maf.. giving the engine wrong readings for air intake causing the fueling to be out.

Log block 31 on some 3rd gear WOT runs to check the o2 correction if you're concerned.. or borrow a wideband lambda from someone. (that kind of stuff will be checked when you come over for the remap anyway)

[Grand Master Patch]

Cleared the faults and they didn't come back,but it's hunting for revs whilst idling.

[topher]

cleaned your throttle body lately? also check all the breather hoses for leaks.. you wouldn't believe how many of those we've had to replace in the last 2 weeks

[Grand Master Patch]

Not done the throttle body for a while,somebody mentioned ignition amplifier since i bought the car it's been mounted on the bulkhead,could it have got to hot?

[topher]

possible mate, but i would've thought that would affect the firing across the whole rev range and not just at idle.... but then again these vw parts seem to fail in some interesting ways!
