- 2001 Beetle GLS TDI (BIODSL). 01 original Glow Bug TDI (sold)
Hi,
well I officially bought my second tdi. yay!! 2001 red beetle GLS manual (bought from tdi member!). the car has been sitting a few years, and hasn't been started in three. Cranked it a time or two before i bought it, but i didn't want to hurt the fuel system, and the batt was dead anyway. Whats the best way to make sure i have fuel supply all the way to the injectors? I peeked at the top of the fuel filter, and there was diesel in it, but it wasn't to the top anymore and none spilled out. how do i make sure i don't air lock it? if i have to drop the tank, lines, and all i don't care ill do whatever needs to be done, but i want to make sure i do it right so i don't have problems.
thanks!
