Hi,
I need some tech help with my 1996 Golf petrol. It's a nice little car, done 260,000 km, but has started to lose power at high revs, high load. Doesn't miss, just seems flat. I have replaced the fuel filter but it wasn't that bad when opened up, and made no difference. three years ago I replaced the rubber flange under the fuel injection body, so it isn't that problem. Is there a pickup screen in the fuel tank, and if so, how do you check it for blockage, and clean it? My old 1979 diesel Golf had a convenient inspection plate in the floor, but I can't find one in this car. My Golf incidentally, is known as Otto II, after the first one lived out 17 years and 300,000 km as Otto I.
