any VW mechanics out there?
I just bought a 1995 Golf with a bit of a running problem. The car will start up and idle fine, but when I step down on the throttle, it bogs out and dies. I have tested a few things already, but I am left to believe it is a sensor of some sort.
If you play with the idle control unit hose, you can get the RPM up slightly, but nothing really noteworthy. I was thinking it might be that sensor.
Here is what I ruled out so far.
Exhaust system
Intake tubes/pipes/leaks
MAF Sensor
Fuel rail and hoses
Any ideas?
