I've got a 25k mile 1979 VW Bug convertible. It starts up fine and runs for just a couple of seconds and then quits.
It does not matter if its hot or cold. Any ideas on where to start? Thanks in advance Bob |

All of the above, plus Bug FI is famous for cooking the wire harness, it's why so many backyard wrenches would rip off the FI and stick a carb on. Check the condition of the wires and connectors.
Also in your hunt replace the injector seals, while the injector is out take a pin and press on the pintle, you should hear/feel a slight click. |
