Rough starts and occasionally "stops"
Hi... My son recently inherited a 1987 Jetta GLI from his grandmother. 71k original miles... It was running/idling very rough and not a lot of power... I did new cap/rotor and plugs and wires. Runs and idles much smoother now. Problem is that it still is a rough start. It takes a bit of cranking till it turns over. Once it does, idles smooth. He also claims that it occasionally stops (usually at a a red light). Not stalling with a shudder... Stops like someone turned the key off. I know this model has reported fuel pump issues. Based on this description, can anyone suggest a logical place to start? Thanks, in advance.
