Starting problems

[scirocco25 at gmail.com (Eric Person)]

The fuel dist. assembly was just moved out of the way, not totally 
removed.  Only the fuel supply/return lines and the dpr/air flow pot. 
connectors were removed.  I think the car is just running on the CSV 
fuel and then when it shuts off then the car dies.  When I try to start 
it repeatedly, the CSV isnt spraying too much anymore and then it will 
hardly start at all.  With key on, the ISV is buzzing, but not 
constantly.  It goes on for about 4 seconds, then off for a short time, 
then on again for 4 seconds.  Im going to pull it apart and do tests 
tomorrow, but it cant be that serious.  This thing ran perfectly before.
