Hello. my son was riding our 2001 gti when it just stopped running. He tried to re-start it but it would only turn over and has not fired up since. If we use starter fluid in the carb it will try to start but only for a quick moment. I am wondering if it is an electrical issue but do not know where to start the investigation process. Ruled out the basics :
Any help or suggestions would be awesome and greatly appreciated.
has fuel
battery is good
new plugs with verified spark
compression is good
all fuses that I can see are good
fuel is getting to the carb
initial "beeps" when inserting key fob are normal
have tried fuel directly in pistons
engine is less than 2 yrs on total rebuild
I just can not figure out the issue here, it was running fine then just turned off, so I don't think it is a engine issue. One thought was the timing, but can that happen all a sudden? Everything sounds normal when trying to start.Any help or suggestions would be awesome and greatly appreciated.
