1.6 Gti Running Very Rough

[lts 0]

My 87' 205 1.6 GTI does not run as it should.

 

Compression test is ok.. but one of the plugs is wet. Changed injector on that cylinder, spark seems ok.

New plugs, cables, cap, rotor.

 

Engine seems "out of balance".

 

Not sure where to go from here. Any ideas are welcome.

hi mate

 

tho the spark seems ok it could be breaking down under load I would check coil and ignition amp

Thanks,

 

Any easy way to check these without replacing them?

I'm having the same problem but only when hot, does yours run rough when cold too?

Yes, it does...

Do i need to replace them to verify if they're ok?

its a process of elimination swapping with a good used (or new) unite will eliminate these from being the problem

Take off the injector plug and spin it over and see if the plug still gets wet
