installed a 300tdi rover pump on my 98 jetta and its bucking like crazy.
ONLY happens under load . can rev at idle and make boost no problem.
heres a video
http://youtu.be/osrxlvUlMlg heres where im at:
prior to installing the pump the car ran fine , boosted as desired, all systems go.
the pump is a rebuilt from the UK so should be like new.
there is an external lift pump that functions correctly
ive tried bypassing the lift pump. - no changes
replaced the large line going to the pump with a clear one and completely bleed out the system of air. - no change
checked for leaks in boost pipes and vacuums using break cleaner and there appears to be none.
looks to have plenty of fuel getting to the pump.
checked and double checked vacuum lines.
dont know what it could be. has anyone experienced this as seen in the video?
is it possible that my pump is bad.
the rpms dont appear to be moving much
just like the fuel is strobing or something.
