Hairyarse 10 Posted May 8, 2015 Vac hose has probably come off. On the main inlet pipe from the metering head to the throttle body, there should be a pipe pushes in underneath it. It normally pulls out when you change the air filter. Check that - or all other vacuum pipes are properly home. (I'm assuming the engine is turning but not firing?) Bargain Corrado by the way!

Hairyarse 10 Posted May 8, 2015 ...hope that makes sense? lol I'm assuming it will be identical to KR 16v in MK2 Golf. (I had this problem.) I can't find a picture of it, but in this link the pipe I'm referring about is hiding under part number 38 on the diagram - http://www.partsbase.org/vw/golf-go-eu-1992-1g-n-300-000-5350-air-flow-meter-fuel-metering-valve-intake-connection-air-filter-with-connecting-parts/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
