Re: GTV6 problems



Zak,
You may be in luck. "Rudimentary" skills should be enough for this one.
Your suspicions about this being a fuel problem are right on. I believe you 
have a fuel pump fuse problem. Either blown or lost contact.
Visually inspecting the fuse won't be enough. You 'll need to pull the fuse 
out, clean the contacts in the fuse holder and the tips of the fuse with Alfa 
Tool Number one (pencil eraser).
I had this same thing happen with my late lamented 1984 GTV6. I didn't think 
of the fuse until a guy in a GTI VW Rabbit pulled up and offered to help me 
out.
I hope this is of some use to you.
bye now,

<<<anyone have any ideas here? I'm thinking fuel
line or possibly distributor, but my mechanical abilities are pretty
rudimentary.
Thanks
Cheers
