Hi there I have a golf 2 1.8 gti 1986 model. I have problems getting it started. Its fitted with the k-jetronic fuel system which i`m having the problem with. The enjine battle to start when its hot or cold. I have bridged the fuel pump relay so that the pump can run and pulled one of the injecters out to see if there is fuel spraying out of the injecter after lifting the control plunger but no fuel is coming out. please help daignosing the problem with me... thanks Kasper
First check the filters... There is a high pressure filter near the fuel distributor and a strainer in the tank... Connect a fuel pressure gauge at the fuel distributor... there are 2 test ports for this. One is "system" pressure the other is "control" pressure... you want the "system" port...if no (or very low) pressure then I would suspect the fuel distributor itself... If pressure is good and still no spray from the injectors then either the fuel is very dirty and has clogged the injectors (not very likely except in extreme cases of neglect) or the injectors aren't getting a signal (or an intermittent signal, more likely) from the injection control unit. If none of this helps you will need to get the Bentley manual and follow the troubleshooting steps...;-)
