change the transfer pump before you burn out your main pump

=>Hello list, Today on my way to emissions testing of all days the Scirocco
=>spurred up a new problem. Until today I've not noticed anything strange.
=>While sitting in line for emissions testing there was a humming
=>sound coming
=>from what sounded like right under the middle of the car. Was
=>still running
=>fine at this point but just when I was getting close to the front of the
=>line the noise got a little louder and the car stalled. It didn't start
=>right back up but after sitting for a few (30) seconds it started back up
=>and ran. Promptly died again if let idle, still humming. I
=>wasn't able to
=>complete my testing because just as I pulled onto the testing spot it died
=>and I had to be pushed out. After sitting for about a minute it
=>started and
=>I drove the thing home with only one instance of stalling. After
=>letting it
=>sit for about 15 minutes it drove home (20 minutes) fine without any
=>problems or humming. Any idea what this could be or at least some
=>suggestions to start poking and proding to find the problem?
=>Thanks. Also
=>I am located in the Vancouver, WA area if anyone is able to offer
=>some hands
=>on advice.
