Very peculiar huh? > That silver relay mounted on the "firewall", is your fuel pump relay. If it is clicking while the engine is running, something is not right in your FI wiring.

The one under the back seat is the FI power relay, and they do come loose once in a while. -- Russ Wolfe '66 FB MT (It drove) '71 FB AT '65 Bug (not running) russw@classicvw.org http://www.classicvw.org ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
