I am giving this one more try. My 1996 Volkwagen Golf with a 2.0L, 5 speed will not start. It started missing and running rough. The engine light came on. When I finally parked it would not start. I have replaced the timing belt, MASS air sensor. And the distributor. It still will not start? The engine anaylisis keeps showing the Code 341.

What else could be causing this type of error
message?

Right now if you try to start the engine it almost starts. Then it just turns over. I have good spark at the distributor and the spark plugs.

Let me know
Thanks
