2G Car wont stay running

[PlatinumTSI]

I put a new FPR in the other night and took the car out for a test run. All the sudden i blew the vac hose off the FPR and the car just about died. I was only going about 30mph at the time and was under no boost. I knew that it put way too much gas in so i changed all the plugs and wires. I ran a boost leak test and nothing. the car sounds like it is missing really bad.
I have no clue what it is. let me know if you have anything that might help.

oo and i was running the car really rich like a week before so i was thinking maybe the upper 02.

Thanks

do you have spark going to cylinder 2? how do you know it's not running?

 

[PlatinumTSI]

if i take out the spark plug wire out it still run the same if i unplug the the injector in the cylinder it still runs the same

do a compression check to see if its a dead hole or just fuel/spark releated.

ok so here is the latest, the compretion in the #2 cylinder was not even at 30 and all the others were fine so i was thinking maybe broken valve spring. i pulled the valve cover checked it all out, and everthing looked fine, lifeters and all. so i did a form of a leak down test and heard some air moving thought the exhaust. :thumbdown: so what now.........?HELP

How hard is it to pull the head i have neveerr done anything that big. i have done everthing to my car so far with just some help for sites like www.vfaq.com but. pulling the head seem a little more he putting a FPR in. if anyone has doen this or knows of sites that will let me know how to do this send the info my way. thnks for the help everyone

Just go buy a repair manual and you shouldn't really have any problems pulling the head. It's not a terribly complicated procedure.
