Help with a 1997 jetta with a AAZ (hard starting and wiring)

<< < (2/2)

I have not owned a stock AAZ vehicle.  You might want to get the A3 Bentley which includes the wiring diagrams.

If it is still hard starting, the first thing I would do is test for power at the glow plug buss bar on a cold start when the key is turned to ON.  Next I would add clear fuel lines before and after the injection pump and see if the fuel is draining back when it sits.

My buss bar tested good for power, but as i bled my injection pump and injectors the car started up quick without the glowplugs surprisingly. Ran like a clock until it warmed up, then started running rough. No air is in the fuel system. I checked the return line as it is clear, but i disconnected it and let it drain into a bottle to see if any bubbles came out anyway, i don't think there is air in my fuel system now. Would timing be the cause of this?
