Review my nick name for my 90 Audi 200, you think a 100 was bad.
I lucked-out and just got a new set of 5 injectors with seals for $40 each.
This will solve the hard starting issue from leaky injectors and loss of
residual fuel pressure. New fuel pump in the back seat waiting for
appointment at dealer. You need a special tool to get down inside the tank
to change this thing, even with access port fully off, as I learned the hard
way.
I am embarrassed to say how much money I have had to spend on this car just
to save it and hopefully be able to drive it into the ground in order to get
my money back.
