Bought this car 3 weeks ago, ran like a scalded ape for a week! Cut the muffler off still ran fine, got around to straight piping and it ran fine all day. The next day I noticed it took a little while for it to start, did that all weekend. Monday rolled around took it to work, when I went to leave work it would crank but not start, so I bought a new fuel filter, o-rings, and re- primed the pump and she still would not start. Bought a new battery put it in there and it started right up. That night I went to start it and it took a while to get going again, the following day it would not start so I took the new battery had it tested and it checked out @12.7 volts. I was messing with the EGR anti shutter flap while my dad cranked the car and I held it shut for about 5 seconds and when I opened the flap the car sputtered then started figured the EGR might be clogged so I deleted it, all turnover still won’t fire up... a bit long winded, I have done a ton of research in the last 2 weeks but I have no clue what to do or look for as I am new to TDI’s
