need someone to point me in the right direction of places where to start. 98 jetta tdi. its been getting down around in the 30's on average here in maryland. i know other years it was easier to start than now...
it just pours white smoke on when trying to start (takes about 15 times crankin it over to get it to fire.
put in glo plugs over new years to see if it might help a little, waste of 60 bucks. tho they were stock gp's, all looked normal except the number 4 which was coverd in oil.
so what yall think, something to do with egr, turbo seal issue? (which im sure are totally blown out after 230,000 miles), or who thinks cyl 4 rings no good??? fuel leakdown?? dont know much about these injection pumps...is there any hope for this beater lol
