rough running ?

[vwscir88@hotmail.com (the hitman)]

well, i used the force like shawn said to do, and yoda showed up and bitch 
slapped me with one messed up 16v motor. who was it that said just open the 
hood and point? you weren't far off. the timing was off, vaccum lines were 
either not connected or running to places that they shouldn't have been, and 
the spark plugs were severly fouled. on top of that this thing was running 
rich with a capital R. i'm surprised it even started, let alone missed. got 
it running close to normal again, still want to change the fuel filter and 
he desperatly needs injector seals, but theres no place to pick up these 
items at 5am. well i'm off to bed, thanks again guys!
