Notes:
◆ Gradual introduction of a new generation of sealing flanges with PTFE seal (Teflon). The sealing flange with

When fitting a new sealing flange, be careful to use the same type of sealing flange that was previously
fitted.

◆ The sealing flange with a PTFE sealing ring is equipped with a sealing lip support ring. This support ring
serves the function of a fitting sleeve and may not be removed prior to installation.
◆ Sealing flange and sender wheel must not be separated or twisted after removal from packaging.
◆ The sender wheel of a sealing flange with spring ring has an Elastomer coating on the sealing surface to
crankshaft. This coating must never come into contact with dirt or grease.

◆ The sender wheel is held in its installation position by a fixture on the assembly device T10017 locating pin.
◆ Sealing flange and seal are one unit and must be replaced together with the sender wheel only.

◆ The assembly appliance T10017 maintains its installation position to the crankshaft via a guide pin which is

◆ V.A.G 1306 Drip tray
◆ V.A.G 1331 Torque wrench (5...50 Nm)
◆ VAS 5024 Assembly tool for spring-type clip

Prerequisites

• The engine must be no more than warm to touch.

Notes:

◆ When repairing an engine where it is not necessary to dismantle the cylinder head, the cylinder head can
be removed without removing cylinder head cover or camshaft.
◆ Then start with work sequence 1.

Notes:
Prote AG.

◆ When repairing engines with leaking valves, it is not sufficient to replace or renew valve seats and valves.
It is also necessary to check the valve guides for wear. This particularly important on high mileage engines
=> Page 75 .
◆ The valve seats should only be reworked just enough to produce a perfect seating pattern. The maximum
permissible reworking dimension must be calculated before work is carried out. If the reworking dimension
is exceeded, the function of the hydraulic tappets can no longer be guaranteed and therefore the cylinder
head should be renewed.

The max. permissible reworking dimension is calculated as follows:

- Insert valve and press firmly against seat.

Note:

If the valve is to be renewed as part of a repair, use a new valve for the calculation.

1.1 - Removing and installing parts of cooling system

Notes:

◆ When the engine is warm the cooling system is under pressure. If necessary release pressure before com‐
mencing repair work.
◆ Hoses are secured with spring-type clips. In cases of repair only use spring-type clips.
◆ For fitting the spring-type clips, assembly tool VAS 5024 is recommended.

Perform cooling system leakage test with cooling system tester V.A.G 1274 and adapters V.A.G 1274/3 and
V.A.G 1274/4.

countries. The anti-freeze ratio must be at least 40 %.
◆ If for climatic reasons a greater frost protection is required, the amount of G 12 can be increased, but only
up to 60 % (frost protection to about -40 °C), as otherwise frost protection is reduced again and cooling
effectiveness is also reduced.

1.4 - Safety precautions when working on the fuel supply system
AG.

◆ For safety reasons fuse No. 40 must be removed from fuse holder before opening the fuel system, otherwise
the fuel pump can be activated by the door contact switch in driver's door.

Warning!
Fuel supply lines are under pressure! Before removing from hose connection wrap a cloth around the connec‐
tion. Then release pressure by carefully pulling hose off connection.

When removing and installing the fuel gauge sender or fuel pump (fuel delivery unit) from a full or partly full fuel
tank the following must be observed:

◆ Before commencing work, switch on exhaust extraction system and place an extraction hose close to the
sender opening in the fuel tank to extract escaping fuel fumes.
If no exhaust extraction system is available, a radial fan (as long as motor is not in air flow) with a displace‐
ment greater than 15 m3/h can be used.

◆ Prevent skin contact with fuel! Wear fuel-resistant gloves!

1.5 - Rules for cleanliness

When working on the fuel supply/injection system, pay careful attention to the following "5 rules":

◆ Thoroughly clean all unions and the adjacent areas before disconnecting.
◆ Place parts that have been removed on a clean surface and cover. Do not use fluffy cloths!
◆ Carefully cover opened components or seal, if the repair cannot be carried out immediately.
◆ Only install clean components:
Only unpack replacement parts immediately prior to installation.

1.6 - Crash fuel shut-off

Function

Vehicles with an airbag are fitted with a crash fuel shut-off system. It reduces the danger of a fire in a crash as
the fuel pump is switched off via the fuel pump relay.
Simultaneously this system provides improved starting characteristics for the engine.
When the door is opened the fuel pump is activated for 2 seconds to build-up the pressure in fuel system.

When opening the fuel system:

**) Voltage at fuel pump with engine stopped and pump running (approx. 2 volts less than battery voltage).

Example:

During the test, a voltage of 12.5 volts is measured at the battery. As the voltage at the pump is approx. 2 volts
less than the battery voltage, this will equate to a minimum delivery of 540 cm3/30 s.

If the minimum delivery rate is not attained:

3 - Activated charcoal filter system


3.1 - Activated charcoal filter system

3.2 - Function

Depending upon the air pressure and ambient temperature, fuel vapour will form above the level of fuel in the
tank.

The activated charcoal filter system prevents these HC emissions escaping to the atmosphere.

In limited quantities, fuel vapours pass through a gravity valve (which closes at an angle of 32 °) located at the
highest point in the tank and through a breather valve into the activated charcoal filter.

2.6 - Adjusting pedal position sender 143


Polo Estate 1998 ➤
4-Cyl. injection engine (2 valve, roller rocker finger), Mechanics - Edition 12.1999
The activated charcoal stores these vapours like a sponge.
When the Lambda control is active when driving (engine warm), the tank venting valve (N80), also known as
the regeneration valve), is activated (pulsed) from engine control unit depending upon load and engine speed.
The opening period is dependent on the input signals.
Intake manifold vacuum draws fresh air through the vent opening on the underside of the activated charcoal
filter during the purging procedure (regenerating the activated charcoal). The fuel vapours stored in the activated
charcoal and fresh air are pulse-fed for combustion.
The pressure retention valve prevents fuel vapours from being drawn from the tank when the solenoid valve is
open and intake manifold vacuum is present. It therefore ensures that the evacuation of the activated charcoal
filter has priority.
No voltage (e.g. wiring open circuit) the

Notes:

◆ After working on the exhaust system ensure that the system is not under stress, and that it has sufficient
clearance to the bodywork. If necessary, loosen double clamp(s) and align silencer and exhaust pipe so
that sufficient clearance is maintained to the bodywork and the support rings are evenly loaded.
◆ Renew self-locking nuts.
