Well it has been like 2 months since the work was done. Would it be the injector pump though. I mean it still runs so... I was thinking it is the injector on the #1 cylinder. I hope to **** its not the pump neither of us have money to replace it and I don't have the knowledge to rebuild it. Any other ideas.

Any other ideas.you could try moving the injector #1 to cyl #2 to see if the problem changes. if it doesn't, then it could be a delivery valve.

See I don't know much about TDI's. So if the delivery valve is bad then does that mean it will need a complete new pump or can the valves be bought separately?

You could switch injectors first, see if that changes cylinders or not, same as the delivery valves. Do them one at a time and be careful not to mix anything.
