Poor grammar and spelling aside, you are probably right if the CitiGolf ECU has not been remapped to run a 2l engine.missioner wrote:U needs to Choon it Bra!Vrrrrphaaa wrote:Hi guyz just want to know what make golf motor 2l mp9 not having enough power with 1.6 ecu even if you rerve it u can feel no power

Re: Golf mk1 ECU problem
the fact that you are putting fuel in for a 1.6 but needing fuel for a 2l. That Is what makes it lazy.
