Subject:      NEED HELP IN FLORIDA!!!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Need big advice in Florida. I came down here and
everything was running fine but when I left early in
the morning, I started having problems about 60 miles
out, the battery/alternator light came on. Made it to
a gas station, filled up and then the car refused to
start. Even with a jump it would not catch. I found
the alternator brushes were worn down to nibs. After a
long tow, got to our friends house and started
working. Ended up buying a remanufactured alternator
and a battery.
Now it starts up but will not idle for longer than 5
to 9 seconds. and dies out when I go to push the gas
pedal. The local dealership and the local VW garage
had no clue. PLEASE SEND ADVICE!! I have no clue what
to do next. I have 2 dogs, a number of cats and a
mother who have no way home!
Please email me at vahistory@yahoo.com as I am not
sure if I am getting the list on yahoo.
Thanks for your time,
Steve Hajasz
(currently in Indian Harbor Beach, Florida.)
