I bought this 1999 MK4 Jetta a few weeks ago. It made it home, barely. The car wouldn’t accelerate above 2000rpm. The seller told me it was a leaking injection pump.
OK, I’ll take it!
$700 later, I am a proud owner of an ALH Volkswagen.
I decided to try resealing the pump myself. Wasn’t too hard to find the right seals and tools online. Now, I wanted to do a deep dive into the pump and really tear it apart. I found out the cam plate and rollers had chunks missing off of them. The pump shaft also had a groove cut out right where the seal rests.
I found a DE110 cam plate online easily. However, the other two parts are showing to be much more difficult to source. Where could I find rollers and a shaft? Is it a better idea just to get a remanned pump?
My last question is, has anyone dealt with this before? I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like this.
