Anyway, this thing exactly happened to me when I was in Kansas on a cross- country trip. I think the higher elevations made the problem worse. There happened to be a VW dealer less than 10 miles away (can you believe that for luck?), so I hobbled into town, and brought it to them in the morning. They said the fuel pump had almost no pressure, and needed to be replaced. They did so (~$130, if I remember), and I had no trouble for the rest of my trip -- not in the Rockies, not in Phoenix. However, the pump still buzzes once in a while...... heading towards 130 Kmiles, Jim Heliotis {allegra,seismo}!rochester!ritcv!jeh rocksvax!ritcv!jeh ritcv!jeh@Rochester
