Yes, there is supposed to be a filter between the tank and the pump, and there is also a filter screen in the tank outlet. If either of these is clogged, it will give the symptoms you describe. If you have a different pump, I would still expect it to be able to keep up with the needs of your 1600cc engine, as long as sufficient fuel can get to the pump. The latter is usually the problem. If you pull off the hose that feeds the pump, you SHOULD get a healthy pencil sized stream of gas running out. If it seems to be anything less look for a constriction before that point. Sometimes it is as simple as a kinked hose. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
