i recently bought a 01 new beetle. it was sitting for 10+ years. will start with starting fluid but only for a couple seconds. the fuel pump relay clicks but no power in the fuel pump. i replaced the fuel pump and still nothing. im thinking its the wires but i dont know. any help please lol. thanks
i have an automatic 2001 VW jetta 2.0 - it sat since december 2021 until now april 2023 mobile mechanic came by and put in a brand new battery, refurbished starter, cleaned up the rusted ground connection from the starter to the chassis or transmission whatever it is the car now cranks, but won't start - he then took off one end of the cold air intake and sprayed something into the engine while i started it up but then it died after 2 seconds the gas is original from probably november 2021 , i have about half a tank he is telling me that probably the fuel pump needs to be replaced any ideas if its just bad gas ? i have 87 octane in there
