Yesterday afternoon, my Son's Jetta quit on him. Got to him, and found a big bubble in the fuel line. Removed and replaced the fuel filter. Both lines were empty. Plugged in the Mighty-Vac on the return line from the IP and commenced pumping. It took forever to fill the filter and a vacuum of 15+ inches to do it.
At this point I became suspicious of something further back in the lines.
Dragged it home with Lurch, and poured in most of a bottle of PS 911. Came back 2 hrs later and still found it nearly impossible to draw fuel from the tank. am tempted to try blowing backwards through the supply TO the fuel filter...but since it is now above freezing I don't know what I'd do if it flows easily( with the tank open ).
Any suggestions? I'd really like to figure out just what happened so it can be dealt with and not have to worry about him later.
Thanks!
