I had this same problem on mine when I picked it up - we tried about 5 high pressure sensors before we found the right one!  Apparently there's about 13 different types for the cab and it's a pain to find the right one! 

We even changed the clocks and were getting ready to do the pump after a while of having no joy - persistance paid off in the end though and we got the right one!

my mk1 gti 1600i would cut out randomly and sometimes the oil light would come on for a second, the car would feel like it was giving up and then straight away all the power would be restored...

i changed the ignition coil and it seems a bit happier now, trying to find the right fuel pump relay so i can change that for a new one... also i have a spare oil pump so will have that changed too, they are not too dear so worth doing for peace of mind...

reading your threads youve had nearly as many problems as ive had with mine, i wrote a blog about my misfortunes and adventures with the golf, ive named her "sh!tbags" this week and ive not driven her since last monday :(
