Larry,
I went through a similar situation not long ago. To make a long

Is the replacement a NEW one, or a new-to-you one?
There are two o-rings on the 16v Dizzy.. On on the outside shaft, one on
the inside.. The inside one is tough to replace, and VW doesn't stock the
part anymore, but a suitable replacement can be found quite easily. NAPA
can find a comparable o-ri
It wont.. Not until the "flapper" is raised, will fuel make it's way to the
fuel injector lines. You only need 3 things: spark, fuel and air.
Assuming the air (compression) is there, do you have spark at the plugs? If

Hey 16Vers,
