VW are gayer than AIDS, and your car obviously has AIDS.

Are you replacing fuel filters, secondary pump (which I dunno if it has, but sounds like it might from your poor grasp of english)?

Re: vw jetta fuel pump help..plz
 

poor grasp of english..me liky the response, poor cuz iam tired.

replacing out side fuel pump.. never mentioned filter. call the out side one
what you want to. but thats the only one thats been replaced. and yes i now know
vw suck balls!

Re: vw jetta fuel pump help..plz
 

I'm not following you on fuel pumps.

If they are getting loud they are dying.

If you are replacing pumps without replacing filters - possibly clogged filters - you are trying to kill the new pump, period.

I had a 92 jetta and that thing broke literally every other day.

They have two fuel pumps, one in the back that from your enrish suggested your friend replaced there is also an inline one which is prob the one your hearing. I'd replace that beast flush the fuel system and replace the fuel filter. problem solved....

Re: vw jetta fuel pump help..plz
 

ok, as far as i know there is one actual pump,then there is also a transfer pump wich is in tank wich is used to fill up the fuel resevoir then the actual pump pulls out of there, the actual pump should be inline , the transfer pump is in the tank.

what injection system are you running? if its 87 it should be CIS, it it could be digifant, are there a bunch of stainless steel lines under your hood that run to the head? i can try and get a better diagnoses once i know the fuel setup

Re: vw jetta fuel pump help..plz
 

yes under the hood there are stainless steel lines.

my friend replaced the fuel pump out side of the car near the pass rear tire.

Due to the fact its a Volkswagen the only repair is to burn it to the ground and consider it a lesson learned for buying shitty german products.

Only acceptable VW would be an old ass rabbit with a boosted B18. ---- CIS and digi, 2 worst creations of man and that includes the haulocost.
