Solution for Fuel Cut Banking Hard rights @ WOT

[Don®]

I thought I'd create a new thread...

I ran into this problem banking a hard right-on ramp @ 20 psi on the GT3052R with a 1/2 tank of gas. A Sudden fuel cut and POP! it went down to 9:1 once it caught fuel. I did a comp test 190 190 185 185. Plugs looked normal with perhaps a hint of detonation.

Not sure if this incident caused any probs...or for that matter what to look for if in case it did.

I'm looking for a simple compact solution to this...options as follows:

1) Re-install the stock pump and run an inline Walbro.

2) Intank pump solution for the 1.8T, it is a dual stage pump and 255lph flow, and keeps the foctory accumulator.
supplied by monster007

3) Fuel accumulator tank



To re-iterate this is the 1.8T Gas tank

I had the fuel cut problem with the Tyrolsport pump, so I put the stock one back in.  When I turn the wick up a bit, I'm planning to run the VF engineering unti-I have one sitting on the shelf- I'll take it apart before I install it and see what's inside.

I don;t really care much for Walbro pumps.

...I wasn't aware that VF Engineering had something available.

they do, its a custom VDO made to their spec. same pickup setup as stock.

sounds like an Audi TT, R3, or potentially toureg FP.


rumor on the street a local shop fitted a porsche cayanne pump. hmmmmmm

I would be very surprised if siemens VDO did a cutom in low quantities.

Well this is interesting...I don't think the TT 225 pump is enough but if there is one that flows similiar or more than a 255 Walbro then I'm game.

speak to pat innes about it.

is it possible to put in a fuel cell with vertical slats inside of it? so it sort of makes a chambered fuel tank, but theyre all connected, because the slats arent all the way to the bottom. itll stop the fuel from sloshing all over the place. itll be in columns instead of just a single large mass that goes all over the place when u bank a bit hard
