I have a 1997 GTI that will occasionally drop RPM at full throttle. Kind of like its starved for gas. I started by siphoning out as much gas as I could and put some fresh gas in. I installed new plugs. That didnt get rid of the problem. last night I cleaned out the bottom of the fuel filter bowl and blew out the filter itself. It had some junk on it, but I doubt that would obstruct enough fuel to bog the engine. Next I removed the fuel baffle pick up and cleaned the filter at the bottom of that. Again, some junk but not real bad. Then I turned the adustment screw on the carb 1/8 of a turn towards the rich side. Is there any carb cleaner anybody recommends to run through the tank? I haven't got it on the water yet to see if my tinkering did any good. Any other suggestions?
