[Vwdiesel] 98 TDI no glow

[Bryan Belman]

Sounds like my old 1990 Audi 200.  It has the same vacume hose going to the ECU as well.
Never had an issue with it, go figure.

  Dad's Passat had sort of a similar problem with that long hose but 
no code from it.  Just "warp field collapse".  There was a kink in that 
hose where it came out of a solenoid valve.  I pulled the hose toward 
the valve, got the kink out and all was dandy!
