Vwagen420 1 Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Well i got my passat with a vr6 and it started up,ran fine so i went in the house for it too warm up and its got magna flow exhaust so i can hear it in the house,so anyways about 15 mins of run time i heard the idle kick right down and it started surging so i ran out and tried keeping it alive with the throttle and it stayed running but wouldnt rev up just kept skipping and farting so i let it die on its own and tried restarting it but the battery was dead??.... so i got a boost day after and it fired right up and would idle fine but back fire with any bit of throttle and the rpm gauge kicks off at about 2700 rpm(clicks in the cluster?) and the motor will just pretty much loose ignition and come right back before the engine stops completely and stay running....THEN while its sitting there idling i just did a quick vaccum line check and pushed down on my sparksplugs and felt some blow back pushing my boot back up but if i push hard it goes right away,almost like the plugs are loose(i hope) or do you guys think i should look at the gaskets Link to post Share on other sites
