  • Golf dies when I accelerate

    I have an a/t mk2. When I had the car serviced, I had to replace the fuel pump and cleaned the injectors. Now I feel that when the car shifts I feel some power loss and when I accelerate to overtake or go faster, the car dies. Hope you could help me find out whats wrong. Thanks!

      did you fitted a new or used fuel pump?

      is there a supply in tank fuel pump, if yes is she working?

      wrong air at the injectors (did you replaced the seals)

        Mine is doing the same. Check the filter on both the inline and tank. Make sure the pumps are working properly. I'm getting an external swirl pot for mine and running the pumps in the wheel well under a false floor.

        As it is now, I'm running a main pump (Bosch 044 copy) and nothing else and its hard to start and hiccups when under load, but I have learnt to live with it until I can get the pumps fixed and the swirl pot sorted.
