Its a 5 pot FI with K-Jetronic FI. I've no idea about the passat, but on the mk2 golf, the fuel pump being noisy was a sign of the lift pump had failed, so the main pump struggles on its own. Replace the (cheap) lift pump and all is well, if the main pump goes it is a much bigger bill. -- Jon B Above email address IS valid. http://www.bramley-computers.co.uk/ Apple Laptop Repairs. |
