Now I'm pi$$ed off.
« on: 09 April 2005, 16:50 »
Thats right.

Most of you would think 675 pounds worth of mechanic would insure the car wouldnt break down. Few miles from my mates house, what happens? Yep you guessed it. Konks out.

Exactly the same problem it went it with originally, fuel not getting to engine due to fusebox.

So tempted just to try and get rid of at one of the shows or ebay. I would loose probably 1000 quid but im sooo pi$$ed of and depressed with dealing with engine issues i cant describe. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

stick with it dude  :wink:

sit down
have a brew
read a vw mag , to remind you how good things really can be,.
ring the garage , tell them straight dont let them f*ck you about,.
and think summers coming  , 30 degree's, window down , music playing, cruising in your vw,
the hassle is worth it if you can get past the bad times

Fuel wont get to the engine. Either fuel pump not working, or more likely the fusebox/plug is buggered.
Got a lovely time of being towed to the garage on  Monday. :angry:

I dont know much about MK1's but check the relay. Take the horn relay out and place that in your fuel pump relay socket. If the pump runs then its the relay hopefuly :smiley: It the pump runs then it should start

Dont worry. hope it gets sorted :smiley:
