in my 85 jetta there is a constant charge comeing from the battery, and it drains it overnight. so what i did is unhook the the interior light circuit, and that ended the problem, also it happend with my 87 and 89 jetta as well. before i would unhook the battery to save it, u could see a spark between that battery, and the cable, so i knew that it was sumthing sticking on. so if anyone has a solution to this instead of just ripping out my circuit, because no i have no interior lights or clock other than the dash lights, and radio.

 Problem2: I had this problem where the engine would almsot completly shut off while driveing the rpms would drop to 0 and then kick abck in imeediatly, i stoped driven it for about 2 months, i thought it was the fuel pump but no it wasnt that, i checked the distributor, seemed to be ok other than extremly dirty, so i cleaned it a bit and it seemed to work but just so i know if anyone has any ideas to taht problem fill me in, i hope sumone can help me on this one!
