James - I would be leary about your VWGuru if he really said the fuel pressure sensors went bad on the FI. I'm no FI expert, but I just printed out the D-Jetronics manual and there is no such thing as a fuel pressure sensor for the D-Jet, let alone two of them.....I'm sure Jim or Keith can confim this. There is a Manifold Pressure Sensor and a Fuel Pressure Regulator, but no Fuel Pressure Sensor. I would ask for more information from the VWGuru. You might also check out: http://www.concentric.net/~tommymi/412/problems/index.htm There is a good manual in there, about the D-jet and L-jet FI systems. Print and carefully read. You might even bring it with you when you go back to the VWGuru. Get informed about your FI system. You might save yourself some headache and $$$$. Don't know about the scored piston, but would be curious to know how it was diagnosed. Did the VWGuru do a compression check or did he tear down the engine already? (did not sound like the latter had happened yet) Just my 3 cents worth John Jaranson 71 FI Auto Fasty (botleg copy of D-Jet manual printed, should probably do the L-Jet sections as well one of these days) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
