Default Golf Mk3 misfire at steady speed (long)

Hello group,




I'm sorry to write so much but wanted to get as many symptoms down as
I could and I hope someone will be able to offer some suggestions as
I've run out of ideas!



Apologies in advance as this is going to be a bit useless given my lack of
mechanical knowledge.

I had something similar going on with my Mk3 (AAM) Golf, and it was
basically some cables or a small connector with some cables that had just
broken down over time. and had been causing intermittent running problems
like yours until the car stopped altogether. I think they may have been
something to do with the injection, but as I recall the connector was
located right in the middle of the engine area, on the top of the engine.
Just over to the right of the oil filler cap, I believe.

The guy chopped out the worn out bits of cable and somehow reconeected it,
and all was well.

Again, sorry about my vagueness.


All the best,
Angus Manwaring. (for e-mail remove ANTISPEM)
