(10-29-2013, 08:29 AM)JB3 where have you been all this time?
you kept the car obviously, figured you sold it and moved on to a VW stance forum with a bunch of circle jerking 16 year olds ripping out oil pans, but you haven't said hellaflush once yet.
life, work, etc. running a vape shop (e-cigs) with a buddy these days. car's just been sitting this whole time and i keep thinking i'll sell it but then never get around to buttoning it up for sale. now that i'm working on it, i'm wanting to keep it
put in a duralast platinum battery that is a big bigger than a group 49 but fits fine, installed 80 amp strip fuse and BOOM engine started! that was short lived though and it died after a bit of idling, i think there's air in there, gonna try loosening the injector lines to bleed anything out of there, and the usual system bleed spot. also picked up a new hood ornament when i grabbed the strip fuses.
noticed some fuel leaking from the return line on the #1 cylinder (closest to firewall) so i'll have to figure out what that's about. noticed that when i replaced the lines previously, i put a plugged line on the 2nd fitting of the #1 cylinder's injector, dunno if that's the right way so maybe that will get changed too.
yep it was air, runs perfectly now.hurray!
