my relative has a 92 talon awd tsi which my grandfather was putting the fuel cover back on the fuel pump assembly. well he ended up breaking the solid black wire, which i researched and its the ground. i see from pics its connected to that little nut. the problem is the car ran fine before he broke that. i put a new connector and connected it. the car starts up but dies as soon as i let the key turn back to the "on" pos. if i keep cranking the car it will run and idle at 1000 rpms like its running normal only with the started sound. i took the fuel line off and when i start it,it gushes gas out and when i let the key go back to "acc" or "on" the gas stops. i was wondering if anyone knows if another pump wire can break and make it do this. the fuel pump has power and is getting gas to the engine but wont stay running. i asked him if he touched anything else and he said no. so can anyone help or had this problem. thanls
