palopalo Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Can anyone tell me if its possible to repressurize the fuel pump by just opening the driver door ? Also do you open the door before starting the engine ? or do you just open the door and have the key in the ignition ? ...thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palopalo Posted October 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 For those that are actually helpful on here .. i'll start again .. ive read before that the fuel pump gets repressurized when the drivers door is opened , but cant find any recent info about this - excpet a confusing comment about 96 golfs that says opening the drivings door(engine off) will pressurize the fuel pump for 2 seconds and so i was wondering if someone helpful might be able to explain this to me ( being a retard ..you might have to use small words ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
