Re: 98 A6Q Intermittent start problem
I tride that before when we had the icy cold temps back in January... I
didnt think of it this time so much because temps have been more moderate...
but I will try that.. If it is water in the gas is that something that will
clear itself up when the "bad" fuel has been expended or is it a problem
that remains in the fuel system?
Thanks

Re: 98 A6Q Intermittent start problem
It depends a bit on how much water might be there but I would think one or
two applications of drygas would solve the problem if that actually is
what's wrong.
