Mk2 Golf Chat / Golf mk2 16v gti cutting out
So my 1990 golf Gti 16v has gone through a lockdown refresh under the bonnet. Weve done a full service, painted the block and manifold. Polished the kjet lines, sheeved alot of wires and in general just tidied everything up.

Put it all back together and it fired up, revved up to 3,000 on its own and then cut out.

Over the last week we have checked the isv, cleaned the throttle body, cleaned the airbox, checked for any leakes, checked the vacuum hoses, checked the ecu, pretty much checked all the normal culprits.

Tomorrow were going to check fuel and make sure fuel is getting to the engine, also check the kjet system.

Any other suggestions? If you keep the revs on it will stay running but keep revving and hunting.

Thanks

George
