Hi basically my golf is playing up...its a 96 1.9 TD. yesterday, went out to change a rear shock for the MOT test, and it wouldnt start. i found one of the glowplug connections was loose, so fixed that and it started ok...now the damn thing wont stop running!! something a bit freaky about switching off the ignition and taking the keys out, with the motor still going. after about five minutes it dies by itself.
ive been out to get a new fuel cut off solenoid (wotever that is) and as usual it doesnt match anything on my engine. where it should go looks different on my car, there is a similar thing set behind and attached to the throttle, but i cant find any reference to it on my etka disk, or the haynes book. it has a smaller thread, and a black plastic body, with a single wire connection at one end and what looks like some sort of push-rod sticking out the other...this all kind of interfaces with a cable id be grateful for any suggestions...anyone have any ideas?? i might end up walking to work tommorow
