Hi,
Several experts have failed to get a fuel supply to the engine of my old Jetta - and I'm no expert(!) After two years' worth of failure to get the bottom of the problem, the car has now sat forlornly in my drive for 18 months.
But it seems such a shame to sell my Jetta when there must be a solution to the repeated failures of both after-market and refurbished original fuel pumps. Several people here have offered to buy it, as they have the know-how and yards to strip it down and make a beauty of it. But summer is here, so I'd like to restart from square one for myself. Such a shame to admit defeat.
I understand it is possible to convert the two-pump fuel system, (tank riser and pressure), to a single pump system. This may well clear out any lurking residual problems with any of the pumps and petrol leads. Also, some new electrical loom may eliminate that problem.
If it's possible to convert to one fuel pump, and if anyone has information about such a conversion, I would be grateful.
Thanks,
Clive.
