GOLFII is down.

[Spyda]

Only had the b....d for a week.

Took it to the car wash and the guy that worked there insisted on showing me how to wash the engine. He said it would all be good. I didnt like it but hey im an idiot.
He said leave the engine running so i did, then as he was washing it, it started to choak, i gave it some gas but it still clonked out. He said it would be fine in a few min, told me to just wash the car and then it would start up no worries. SO i washed the car, turned the key and it wouldnt turn over, made all the usal sounds but didnt turn on. So i pushed it in to the shamy area and looked at a few things pretending i knew what i was doing. Drying the leads and spark plugs.......then i called dad haha.
Waited till he got off work and he sorted it out by drying the leads, plugs and dizzy, as i did but he did a better job. started up realy rought but got there in the end. I drove it to my parents cafe do get some dinner. It was ok, but running a bit rough, i think it was droping a cylinder randomly. Had dinner, went back to the car and the ****er wouldnt start, well it would, but it would sit on idel for about 3sec then drop to about 500-700rpm, sounding realy bad, again like one cylinder wasnt going and when you would hit the gas it would cut out.

Any ideas? Just wet leads?

Moral of the story is, dont do dumb ****.
BTW i got new leads, some Top gun MAX something or other, they said they didnt have anything above 7mm coz it couldnt fit (even though one of my leads was 8mm anyway from previous owner) so i got some MAX, low resistance leads. Any reviews?
