You're still too high on the fuel pressure, check the manual. 28 PSI(2 bar). WD40 is marvelous for lots of stuff, but I wouldn't use it for cleaning plugs. It's basically kerosene and adds to the fouling problem. If you must clean, use lacquer thinner or even starting fluid. And the inside of the distributor cap is the last place I'd use it, WD40 is flammable. You might launch your cap through the deck cover. Check all your vacuum and air hoses, injector seaà?°D hose big rubber sleeves connecting the air distributor to the intake pipes. Air leaks at any of those places will make for a rich-running engine. Since you've got to pull the injectors to do a seal check, you can check the injectors for leaks at the same time. Also make sure your fuel hose has no cracks in it, I found a section up front the other day that wasn't spurting gas, but was leaking into the fabric cover. Wasn't dripping either, but I knew it would only get worse, so replaced it. Leaks like that can cause fast bleed-down in the fuel ring and hard starting. ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
