I read it.........
What the heck is a LED windshield washer nozzle??

Guys.....I haven't checked back here because I'm supposed to be notified of replies to this thread......but that works intermittently also......like the GP's. :lol: So far, every start has been in a couple cranks. I have wiggled the relay around in it's socket, seems to be FINE now! I think 10.3 or ...

This morning, I connected a MM to the GP lead on the engine and positioned it so I could see it from inside the car. Turned the key and it showed 10+ Volts..... It cranked about 2 turns and fired up. I need a GP indicator light inside the car someplace......has that topic been discussed on here some...

Steve, You have stated what I thought of earlier when I was out for a drive enjoying the great fall weather here, and rethinking the possible causes to this mystery. I -said- the GP cable has voltage......BUT I have failed to check it when this specific starting problem occurs. I assumed it's got vo...

I took each GP out and hooked it to the battery for 4-5 seconds.....till they started to get red.... There is power at the GP cable..... I'm not saying they are great, but the all did get red. Still if they're not the best, the Aux. fuel pump isn't helping them....I'm pretty sure of -that- anyway! :...

Is there still fuel in the clear line going to the IP when it won't start? Yes ! Totally full of fuel no bubbles...... Weird huh? my initial thought on this is that you've got a huge vacuum system in the tank somewhere and over night it's pulling your fuel back into the tank. Can't be.....this morn...

OK guys, lots of work in the shop, so JUST yesterday I got the clear blue fuel lines on (motorcycle shop) the Jetta. After I drove it around a few miles both the fuel line and return line are completely full and NO bubbles. This morning, NO start again! It acts like the glow plugs are bad.....like 3...

Thanks, will get the clear line on there ASAP.

I do not think the ULSD would have a particularly different effect on the vane pump. It certainly wouldn't make the metal vanes swell. Oh look! The vanes are METAL not phenolic. What the hell was I thinking......I did not study the pictures close enough! If one were to adjust the pump so that there...

Tonite I'm pinching shut the inlet fuel line with a C clamp..........
We'll see what happens tomorrow.........

Man......that's a lot of neat (profanity removed by moderator) to tinker with....... I've always just beat on these things to get from A to B, but I'd really like to 'find' a bunch of cool and cheap parts to put together a 'toy' for playing around on weekends in summer. Cold start: Re-make all the b...

Nice new <thicker> copper washers came with the gasket kit. No leaks from them...... I recommend the EBAY seller from Alabama that offers the kits there. He sounded eager to help and sent the kit right out priority mail. I will check for minute leaks in the lines. I'm sure it does not take much to b...

IN for less mileage.......and MORE fuel.

Ok......my replys to the comments....... I do wonder and am now very curious about this "crush seal-crush collar" part. I looked things over pretty throughly inside as well as studied the pictures in vaughanatworld's post in the tech forum. I don't see any crush collar anyplace. I want to ...

I spent most of the weekend taking apart my IP (89 Jetta 1.6 NA) and installing new O rings and seals. NO more fuel leaks! However, overnight the pump goes dry and it won't start unless I run the Aux. elec fuel pump I installed few weeks back. I have replaced the clear VW line from the filter to the...
