I have a 99 a4 wagon 1.8 manual. It seems there's something stopping the fuel from the filter to the engine. I checked the pump it pumps! I checked the fuel filter clean and clear! After killing the battery and sitting for 5 days working on if, I hooked it up and it started. I reved it up a couple times to make sure it ran for about 1 minute then sputtered out and the more I tried the less it would run. A squirt of fluid it fires right up. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Chris
