Residual Pressure
- This procedure is only required for hot start problems. Connect Fuel Pressure Tester (VW 1318) as previously described in FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE. See Figure . Open fuel pressure tester valve. Using Remote Control (US 4480/3), as previously connected in step 2) of FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE, energize fuel pump for 5 seconds. Note fuel pressure drop over time period. Fuel pressure should not drop more than 2 psi in 10 minutes.
- If fuel pressure drop is greater than 2 psi in 10 minutes, inspect fuel pump check valve, airflow sensor plate free play, and sealing rings on fuel distributor and fuel lines.
