1993 Golf stalling

The problem with my 1993 Golf 2.0L is that after 20 minutes or so it spits and sputters, then cuts out. I start it again and the same things happens. I am thinking it may be the fuel pump but do not want to put $$$ into that as it is expensive if that is not the problem. Any help would be appreciated!

Is the check engine light on? Is the check engine light functional? It should come on for a couple of second when first started.

The check engine light does not come on, but when I turn the key on, where the odometer is there is a light that comes on and says "in 02". I do not know what that means. Any help would help me!

Re: 1993 Golf stalling

IN 02 stands for Inspection Service 02. The service light has four states IN 00(no service req) OEL (Oil change req) IN 01( Bit of a larger service ) and then IN 02 which is a fairly large service in your service manual it will describe what needs to be done with this service. I think boschmann will be of more help with the stalling though.

Re: 1993 Golf stalling

The CEL doesn't come on for a few seconds whn first starting? Is the fuel pump making any noise? Sputtering is more commonly a fuel issue but you can try spraying the ignition coil with water & see if it starts acring. You would need a simple fuel pressure gauge to check the pressure.
