newbie with a prob
« on: 02 March 2005, 23:02 »
Hi folks, recently i have been having a prob with my gti mk 2, the engine cuts out if the revs fall below 1000 rpm instead of bringing it back up. I've had new spark plugs, leads, dizzy cap and starter motor fitted. She runs well when driving normally its just slowing down and coming to a stop when the prob occurs. Any help or advice on this prob would be greatly appreciated, either by someone who has experienced this or if you are a dab hand at gti engines,
                         Ta much
                            Dan
