BAWANADO an '87 WWW sits listless in the driveway her fuel
injection system suspect by this fair-weather DIYer. Symptoms
leading to total dismay was a rapid increase in the frequency of
cutouts at normal highway driving after 30 min to a few hours.
Installed the VW supplied modification to stabilize the air flow
sensor signal. A wiring harness w/ add'l capacitor I believe, had
been previously described in Tech Bulletin. With or without it I now
have no firing, turns over fine, spark from coil good, rotor rotates.
I hear fuel pump and smell gas in das motor compartment but not sure
what to inspect next ? Original owner w/over 155k miles and never
required a manual for troubleshooting, repair or maintenance. Now I
wait for my overdue Bentleys w/ diminishing optimism. She's never
gone back for fixin'(except for CVs and a campaign long ago).
Any suggestions warmly welcomed - Thanx
