Check fuel flow
Check conditions
l  The Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- supply does not display any irregularities.
l  Remote control -VAG 1348/3A-
l  Residual pressure and fuel pressure regulator in order → Chapter.
Checking process
  Note
The supply flow of the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- for BAH engine is measured at 3.0 bar and at 4.2 bar for BPA/CCRA engine. Because of that, fuel pressure must be checked before measuring the flow → Chapter.
–  Remove fuel filling nozzle cap.
BAH engine
   
–  Remove return hose -1- from fuel pressure regulator.
–  Connect Adapting set -VAG 1318/17- to fuel pressure regulator.
–  The end of the Adapting set -VAG 1318/17- should be installed in a 3.0-liter (minimum) graduated container.
BPA/CCRA engines
  N20-0526
–  Remove outlet hose from fuel filter position -1-.
  Note
To unfasten fuel lines, press the safety key.
–  Connect the Adapting set -VAG 1318/17- to position -1- of fuel filter outlet and to the Pressure gauge -VAG 1318- .
–  Install the Pressure gauge -VAG 1318- to the Adapter -VAG 1318/11- and the Adapting set -VAG 1318/16-.
–  The end of the Adapting set -VAG 1318/16- should be installed in a 3.0-liter (minimum) graduated container.
The procedures below are common for engines.
–  Open the Pressure gauge -VAG 1318-valve. The valve points towards the direction of flow -A-.
–  Activate the Remote control -VAG 1348/3A- and close the valve slowly until thePressure gauge -VAG 1318- reads a pressure of 3.0 bar (BAH engine) and 4.2 bar (BPA/CCRA engines). Do not change the valve position any more.
–  Empty the graduated container.
–  The flow of the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- depends on the Battery -A-voltage. Accordingly, connect a Multimeter -VAG 1715- to the Battery -A- using a Set of auxiliary measuring cables -VAG 1594C-.
–  Activate the Remote control -VAG 1348/3A- for 30 seconds and measure voltage.
–  Compare the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- voltage and flow found with the theoretical value in the graphic below:
If the flow found is the same or higher than the theoretical value, the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- is in top condition, as well as the fuel filter, the pipes and the screen filter of the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6-.
  R20-10016
BAH engine
1)  Minimum amount cm3/30 s
2)  Voltage in the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- with engine stopped andFuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- operating (approx. 2 volts less than Battery -A-voltage).
Sample reading:
During the test, a voltage of 10.5 volts is measured. With this voltage in the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- the result shown is a minimum flow of 540 cm3/30 s.
  N20-0134
BPA/CCRA engines
3)  Minimum amount cm3/30 s
4)  Voltage in the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- with the engine stopped and the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- working (voltage in the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- is 2 volts less than that of the Battery -A-).
Sample reading:
During the test, a voltage of 10.5 volts is measured. With this voltage in the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- the result shown is a minimum flow of 583 cm3/30 s.
If minimum flow is not reached:
–  Check if the supply pipes for the filter present folds or obstructions.
If fuel lines are in order.
–  Check fuel flow before fuel filter.
  WARNING
Fuel supply lines are under pressure. Wrap hose connection with cloth prior to loosening. Next, eliminate pressure by disassembling hose carefully.
BAH engine
  R20-10011
–  Remove the supply hose -1- from the fuel filter inlet and connect it to Adapting set -VAG 1318/17-.
–  Attach the Adapting set -VAG 1318/17- with connector -1- to the Pressure gauge -VAG 1318-.
–  Connect the Pressure gauge -VAG 1318- to the Adapter -VAG 1318/11- and Adapter set -VAG 1318/1-.
–  The end of the Adapting set -VAG 1318/1- should be installed in a 3.0-liter (minimum) graduated container.
BPA/CCRA engines
  N20-0531
–  Remove the supply hose -1- from the fuel filter inlet and connect it to Adapting set -VAG 1318/17-.
–  Attach the Adapting set -VAG 1318/17- with connector -1- to the Pressure gauge -VAG 1318-.
–  Connect the Pressure gauge -VAG 1318- to the Adapter -VAG 1318/11- and Adapter set -VAG 1318/16-.
–  The end of the Adapting set -VAG 1318/16- should be installed in a 3.0-liter (minimum) graduated container.
  Note
To unfasten fuel lines, press the safety key.
The procedures below are common for engines.
–  Open the Pressure gauge -VAG 1318-valve. The valve points towards the direction of flow -A-.
–  Activate the Remote control -VAG 1348/3A- and close the valve slowly until the Pressure gauge -VAG 1318- reads a pressure of 3.0 bar (BAH engine) and 4.2 bar (BPA/CCRA engines). Do not change the control valve position any more.
–  Empty the graduated container.
–  Activate the Remote control -VAG 1348/3A- once more for 30 seconds. Compare the fuel flow with the one obtained in the first measurement.
If minimum fuel flow is reached:
–  Replace fuel filter.
If minimum fuel flow is not reached:
–  Remove the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- and check whether the screen filter is dirty.
Only if no irregularities have been found so far:
–  Replace Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6-.
If fuel flow is reached, but the fuel supply might present irregularities (for example: a momentary fault in the fuel supply):
–  Check current draw of the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6-, proceeding as follows:
  N20-0471
–  Reconnect all fuel hoses removed again.
–  Connect the Multimeter -VAG 1715- to harness red/blue cable (pole 1) engine BAH, blue/white (pole 1) engines BPA/CCRA using the current leakage clamp meter -arrow-.
–  Start the engine and run it at idle speed.
–  Measure current draw by the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6-.
During the test, the maximum current theoretical value is 8.0 ampere for BPA/CCRA engines and 6.5 ampere for BAH engine.
  Note
If it is an occasional fault in the fuel system, checking can also be carried out during test drive, which is a two-men job.
In case of excessive current draw:
–  Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6- - damaged, replace it.
