Norrisvr6 0 Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Hi, wee problem wit my 1996 vr6 golf, I have noticed recently coming down gears especially into 2nd the car burbles and splats(backfires slightly) I have a sports decat on and a miltek system not sure if it is due to this, the car seems to be going ok tho. Last nite however i was racing it a little and noticed a strong smell of petrol coming through car from vents as had cold air blowing opened bonnet and cudnt see ne leaks also checked fuel pump in back bt theres definately no leaks in it as it was covered in dust. Im afraid of going up in smoke so Any suggestions to either problem r they linked?Thanks for replysNorrisvr6 Link to post Share on other sites
wakdog 0 Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 im pretty sure its normal for VR6s to overfuel a wee bit on deceleration, and since i had my exhaust done (cat back) it is much more noticeable.On the fuel smell, when my compressor needed regasing it made a slight petrol smell when it was running but it wasnt pumping any cold air at all...
