I'm now officially frustrated and confused - I've been working on getting an '89 GTi 16v back in fighting shape for use as my commuter/autocrosser since late August. Yeah, I'm slow - sue me - between club racing, Grand Am Cup and Enduro races, I've been a wee-bit busy and working in a hot and steamy (or now ice-cold) shop wasn't extremely enticing.
In any case, the symptoms are that the car stumbles significantly off idle. However, once the rpms hit about 2000, it revs freely "like it should". The car has fresh injector seals, plugs, cap & rotor as well as a new timing belt. I've checked the cam and ignition timing and it's spot-on. I've also done the old "spray all the possible vacuum leak areas with brake clean" to check for leaks to no avail. Any thoughts or suggestions? Coolant temp sensor? I had the Rabbit Truckette parked next to the GTi over the summer while I had the injection pump rebuilt - maybe it hexed the GTi so that I wouldn't sell the Truckette in Spring... I'd keep banging my head against the wall but the wall is starting to crumble... Thanks all!!!! Matthew __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
