Little backstory: I bought a 98 beetle (5speed) about 4 years ago. When I had it the previous owner used to run it on veggie fuel. I ended up taking all the components out and returning the car back to stock.
Fast forward not even a year afterwards timing belt snapped and ending up putting a brand new head on the car. Installed a new fuel pump seal kit, egr, starter, battery, glow plugs, fuel filter, air filter. Car ran normal.
The past month ago I installed used injector with pp764 nozzles. They were pressure tested and calibrated by DBW LLC and have little less then 30k on them. The car has new life in it and pulls great!
The thing I noticed though is that when its cold it takes a few more cranks then normal. I ended up dropping the IQ from 5.6 / 5.8 to 4.0 and bangs around a little harder then before when its colder. By the way my car is completely stock all I did were install injectors/nozzles.
So my question is:
When Im driving the car as soon as I turn it on I always make sure I drive slow until its warmed up. When I'm leaving in 1st gear the car seems to bog down and then all off a sudden it kicks up and jolts me to the back of my seat. Even though I'm not pressing on the pedal and harder (once again I drive really slow when engine is cold) It does this until the engine is warmed up and then its fine.
Anybody know what could be causing this? Seems like the turbo just kicks in or extra fuel gets dumped but I'm not even pressing the gas hard enough to do that. I also dont think its the clutch slipping because it pulls fine in 3rd and 4th.
Thanks
