just cleaned the dizzy cap, double checked leads. Backed the timing off a "tadj" and the same with the mixture, fired up without a backfire! I'm going for a run to see what happens!
I've already put the feelers out though for a MK4 GTI, I don;t have time ( 3 kids etc..) to keep the old beast in its best order, time for it to move on to someone who can devote more to time to it - I'll miss it though for sure!)

glad to hear its sorted mate, well i hope so anyway. As for selling it, and buying a mk4, i know what you mean...New car are more economical, more practical, and give less problems. so it is the more sensible option!

I know I'll regret the sale, I've put so much time/ effort and of course cash into, but it needs to ge to someone who can put the time into it.
It has been my daily for 4 years, this is the first problem I've had tbh, so its been a good un!
