Hi all,
I had the usual gti cutting out problems etc (yawn) and fix them yesterday by cleaning the TB to pristine condition lol
The engine now idles sweetly, and starts quite easily altho still needs a wee bit of throttle to catch at start up HOWEVER the engine now seems to have developed a fuelling fault - if i accelerate say - up hill, opening the throttle further causes the power to drop away, but letting back on the throttle and the engine wakes up and pulls strongly!
Its like too much air / low fuel pressure etc,
I did at one point renew the wee hose to the FPR although I might not have sat the FPR in exactly the same position (as it seems to rotate easily if twisted by hand now) - so maybe it isnt fitted correctly now? I saw in the haynes that the return port must point down but the new hose is a tiny bit short so pulls the FPR round a bit - could this be the fault?
It revs fine now when sitting still but under load the throttle has to be used gently or opening up too much makes the power sag away :O(
