Thanks to everyone who has helped with advice on rebuilding my stock 1600cc fuel injected superbeetle engine. The car is back in action but I have one annoying problem. From time to time the car appears to lose power then pick up again. Also at idle it sometimes runs at higher revs than normal.I replaced the fuel filter but this did not help. Any suggestions?

First thing to do is check for Air Leaks. > http://www.1800vw.bizhosting.com/wontidle.htm Have a nice Day. Vic

Thanks for the suggestion although in my experience any leaks in the fuel injection system makes the car run much worse than it is doing
