T25 is doing my nut in

where's the 'frown' smiley?

 

Don't have any easy start @davidoft can you explain what to do with it?

 

Do u spray it on the key before I put it in or what?

 

Even if you have a carb/ fueling issue or its flooded it will start on easy start, you spray a bit down the carb whilst cranking, the chokes on on that video so looks ok, if you crank it a while without it starting it will get flooded, you could also have a carb issue but we can sort that after if you do

Ok so I get some easy start. when you say crank it you mean turn it over by the key I take it?

 

Yeah, ideally with an assistant spraying as you crank, or spray a bit down the inlet, put your foot to the floor and crank it, be quick cos it evaporates quickly

 

I love being quick.

 

Have you got fuel getting to the carb?
If it's just running for a few secs if sounds like fuel starvation. Fuel filter blocked? The one in the carb can be blocked solid.

 

The cone filter yarp?

 

Yep.

 

I did clear it not too long ago not that it needed it. But It is worth another look I guess

 

It took me two days to rebuild my pieburge (caught on fire),putting it on ,taking it off and I (supposedly) know what I am doing...

 

I think there is something stopping that opening "fully"

 

That's why I filmed it. It looks a bit half arsed.

 

Colloquially - but wrong.

 

It's the choke

 

Not wrong, it's name used to identify them, just not VW's official name

 

and its "on" all the time...

That video shows it stops on something ,even if it comes off.....

I did have problems with that side of the carbe...

Look down both holds and move the same thing it should move two lower butterflys
