The other day im driving around and all of a sudden my car just dies. I haven't been able to get it to start back up, it's a 2000 Jetta with the 5 speed. I ran a few test on it, no codes other than egr related. ASV is free and there is a new fuel filter on it. I cracked the fuel lines at the top of the injector and it is getting fuel but instead of spraying the fuel it is just dribbling out of the lines.
This brings me to believe that the hydraulic head or distributor head (same thing) isn't building enough pressure to pop the injectors. My question is would changing the hydraulic head restore the pressure and if so can this be done while the pump is still attached to the car? if this is possible how much better does an 11mm pump perform over the 10mm for the manual cars? Thank you guys in advance!
