I have a 96 GTI and just started having a problem today. I got it a couple months ago and when I got it the previous owner had not used it for 2 years. I replaced the plugs charged the battery and it was good to go. Now, a month later am having problems. The last time i took it out i noticed the top end speed was about 3 - 4 mph slower. didnt think anything about it. today i take it out and after about 30-45 minutes of riding it just wouldnt accelerate. I could go about 5 - 8 mph. Throttle would be all the way and it would sound as though it was bogging down and it was vibrating. Then about 5 minutes of going 5-8 and trying to go faster it would kick in and go. then i would let off the throttle and would start this all over again.
cant think of anything i did other then add oil and fill it up with gas today...
any help would be appreciated!
