    My golf mk3 GTi just krenk and wont start. But when it does start, when i press the excel before it gets warm, it turns itself off and wont start again till maybe after 3 to 4 hours.

    They suspected a coil, i changed it but still wont start. Changed plugs but nofing! At times it will start but will not iddle for a long time and will turn itself off. A friend suspected it could be iddle valve problem..can it be?
