I want to set my Scirocco on fire!



I'd try swapping them out. I had a problem with a 91 Golf 8V Digifant I. It
would go for 30 min or so and crap out as though running out of gas. I
changed the computer and all set. It turned out that the ground strap was
missing. The computer burned out dure to that.
