VW handed us a super troubleshooting tool -- on a silver platter.
If you tell us what that knob does ---I can diagnose your pump condition
with my eyes closed.
Use a fish scale --- and measure pull as follows. Engine off and idling .
Sample ? "Bunny Bondo" OFF ---20 lbs ---engine idling 2 pounds.
Remember the pumps wear gradually ------- like tires and GEEZERS.
If you are right up there on diesels ? ---this has to do with overcoming
injection and ignition LAG.
Hillbilly Tuning compensates for worn injectors and pumps and shitty low cetane
fuel.
My American friends ---you are now getting shitty Syncrude dieselfuel from Canada.
By the thousands of tons. ---------and as long as price is --what it is , it will flood the market.
Made from TAR. ---Low cetane low viscosity ---little or no parraffin. ------in other words
make sure you add lots of lube for your pump and injectors.

PS : If pulling knob makes NO difference when idling ? ---you likely have a
GOOD pump.
