Howdy



Howdy, I've been meaning to join this list for a while, but have been
neglecting it as much as I have been my scirocco:-( I have a 84 that I
pulled from a junk yard in 93 and rebuilt (body and entire motor). This is
my 4th of 5 VW's I've owned. Over the years It had fallen down on my list of
priorities (school, got married, bought a house etc.).
The last VW and first new one was a 97 GTI VR6. It wasn't good. Service
sucked, everything broke, I just got a bad one. It was bad enough that I
traded it for a 98 Z28 w/6 speed. Bring on the jokes, I've heard them all
but, 310 RWHP can be fun at times :-)

My Scirocco is in dire need of a new interior. I'm looking for a new dash,
and door panels.
The only mechanical  problem I'm having with the Scirocco is that it
hesitates at time when accelerating, and when cruising down the road? It
doesn't do it all the time, and the temperature doesn't matter either? The
plugs, cap-rotor, wires and coil are all new. It seems like it's not getting
enough gas? Are there any warning signs when the fuel pump starts to die? I
don't think it's any louder than usual, and like I said it doesn't do it all
the time.  What about a fuel pressure regulator? Any ideas will be greatly
appreciated. Also this morning when I got to work, I went to open the hood
and the hood release cable broke. Any tricks to opening the hood now?
