Hey guys! Im here in Wasilla and my 95 TSi is just crying to be driven but I am kind of at a stand still. Im wondering if any of you have modified the fuel pump sending unit's fuel feed line connection because in removing my burned up fuel pump, I kinked the line like an idiot, now I see alot of guys in the states using AN fittings and welding them on, but I am having trouble finding those types of fitting locally, any ideas? I cant wait to tear up the valley in my DSM again

Welcome Alaska sucks for getting parts like these. I would source out a vendor, amazon etc.

Is it dark green and an automatic?

It is dark green, but it is a 5 speed. It has black side skirts and bumpers, and a hack job FMIC cut out

Gotcha. I sold my dark green 95 TSI AWD to a guy in the valley a few months. It had 72k miles and was mint though .

How much did you pay for it?

 

[907dirtybird]

I paid 3k for it. Ran great for about 8 months, but I like it too much to give up on it. Now after ruling out a bad fuel pump, I am chasing down why I keep blowing the 20 amp "engine" fuse in the fuse box under the hood

When my old 97 GSX did that it was because the wires coming off the alternator rubbed against the o2 sensor.
