Great to hear you got things running. I am not looking forward to possibly having to revamp my fuel distributor..
Just a dumb thought, but maybe a cheap WalMart car cover can keep the water out from inside long enough to track down the leaks (assuming the car sleeps outside) One thing to check is the water drainage hoses in the sunroof (#6 in this diagram), I think it is known to clog up and then water gets in the car. I believe they drain out at the door jams. http://www.partsbase.org/media/images/vw/1733e3b1fe7f5d6820c5db42f80e50de.png [cid:image001.png@01D173D6.C7C7CA10] -Larry -----Original Message----- From: mk2-16v@googlegroups.com [mailto:mk2-16v@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Steven Arguello Sent: Tuesday, March 1, 2016 4:11 PM To: mk2-16v@googlegroups.com Subject: [mk2-16v] Ethanol problems resolved, finally; new stuff to fix I have 3 different fuel distributor/pressure regulator/dpr sets. They were all at least partially messed up with that white flakey oxidation crap. I wasn’t able to get any of the messed up ones to work, but I finally found a combination of the 3 that worked. I also cleaned the injectors with my Dad’s old drafting pen ultrasonic cleaner. (not sure if that did anything). Car runs great. I now run the car at least every other day. Now I can move onto other issues. The most urgent one is the 1/2” of water and ice in the spare tire well. I can tell by the high water line there was up to 3” in there. It seems wetter around the taillights. The sunroof seal is shot, is that the most likely place that water’s getting in? How big of a deal are they to replace? Water’s also getting in through the doors, with the door panels off water drips out of the door onto the rocker. I’ve been replacing the plastic sheet just the way I found it, but I’m not sure that it’s the right way. Any tips on how to do it right? Water might also be getting in around the windshield. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MK2-16v" group.
