Transfer Pump Diagnosis

[T Berk <tberk@mindspring.com>]

Car is an 86 GTI, but I think the fuel system is the same as later
Sciroccos so lets just pretend, shall we?  Besides lots of this car are
going into the Roc eventually so....

I am getting hesitation when running but don't yet have a Bentley to
cover this knock sensor based engine management system. Other than
tourquing it to the right spec is there any way to determine if I am
getting the e timing backed down? Or that there isn't enough fuel.
Hmmmm. 

I know there is trouble when I have one o r two gallons in the tank and
take a hard turn it cuts out temporally, and if stuck in a fast food
line the pump makes noise and cuts off the car.

What's the symptom difference between a failing pump in the tank vs the
pickup tube trouble?

Recently: Changed oil, plugs, air filter. Did reroute and tie down loose
wires in the Eng. bay so...

It's too far all over the map to pin down yet. (I'm very coherent today,
right?)
