Hello dieselers. a VW golf 1999 that I share with my sister. A most recent scare was on a rainy night, my sister called me saying car seem to choke at higher rev, couldn't make it to 2000 rpm. It was a short drive and I told her to bring it back home. I checked the next day and it started okay. reved at neutral even up to 3800. Second day I came back, and engine keeps cranking but doesn't engage. Upon checking under the hood, I touched the choke valve lever that had a linkage to a "vacuum type" diaphram device and it clicked to open position. With this, car started and I drove for an hour without a problem. Is this a frequent problem and what do you call that assembly and how should this problem be handled.
