Cheers rich, I take its just the arm and float on the end im checking to make sure its free to move?

Afternoon all, I fitted a new fuel pump thinking my cutting out issue was that (was the cam sensor) but now the fuel guage isn't registering properly. it started never going above 3qtrs even though it was full and now with £25 in the tank its showing empty lol (light on) To replace, i took the cover off, hoses and plug fitted in the new pump and reversed. It works fine i.e pumping the fuel etc, Is there something i could have missed? Thanks

Will do cj1, cheers

sharktech changed their profile photo

typo on my part lol - i've updated them now - apologies
-
Went and turned the key and no prime but started first time musnt have been long enough between. i know it does it every morning though.
-
Will go walk down in a min and check then i can check when i leave, thats something i've heard but never paid loads of attention to lol
-
Cheers Rich, will keep that in mind. i've found very small amount of info/videos on lupo but polo always comes up
-
Cheers Sausage, will add to checklist. Turning on first time you will here the fuel being primed. If i then turn off and on again you don't hear it prime. Will double check though.

i ordered a new temp fan switch as that was suggested but will also get the new cam sensor as rich suggested
-
Lol, yeah sorry no idea why i put that. 100% nothing in vagcom. Video below of last night first startup on works carpark. Now goto the same place as usual and it cut out, this time i put my foot down and it then kicked back in Thanks in advance

Battery is less than a year old, car starts fine 9 out of 10 sometimes takes a couple of tries. just thought! - another symptom, once the car has started sometimes if i increase the revs it will cut out or if i do it slowly it will start to splutter around 2k any higher and it will cut out. If let go and it sits around 960-1k again. After a min if i try again it will be fine. Thanks

When i replaced the crank sensor i got even further than normal but every day without fail it did it in the same further place
-
Hi Sausage yeah lol. I forgot to add if i use the car for smaller journeys then it does it more. nothing comes up on the dash also i can put my foot on the accelerator and it seems to try and go but eventually it will just cut out. Cheers

Rich Did you ever find out the issue, so far i have replaced the Fuel Filter, Fuel pump, 109 relay, crank sensor (one at the front of the engine - bitch to replace lol). VCDS and other scanners have come up with no Faults. Mine does it without fail every day, i can get from home to work (22miles) car sits all day i drive home and at the same spot it cuts out. i can usually catch it and foot on clutch and restart while coasting and can get home without another issue. sometimes if i put my foot on the clutch and just before 10k i lift the clutch and sort of bump start and it carries on again. Thanks in advance
