Fuel Delivery and Air Induction: Testing and Inspection
Required special tools and test equipment
- VAG 1551 or VAG 1552 Scan Tool (ST) with VAG 1551/3 adapter cable
- Engine leak detector spray G 001 800 A1
NOTE:
- If there are leaks, intake manifold vacuum will draw in the leak detector spray with outside air. The spray reduces the ability of the fuel/air mixture to ignite, which causes a drop in engine speed and a significant increase in CO-content.
- Observe the safety precautions listed on the container.
Checking
- Connect VAG 1551 or VAG 1552 scan tool and press buttons -0- and -1- to insert "Engine Electronics" address word 01 (with engine running at idle)
