1.6 Golf problem

Asking for a friend. (Will invite him to this thread)
Fuel injection Golf that cuts out because of petrol flooding. Must be something in the air intake ? Vacuum pipe ?

Flooding on a Fi? Never heard of that, how did he determine its flooding?

I had something similar on my Polo. It was the temp sensor.

Interior or exterior? Have you noticed any leaks

What temp sensor ? Measuring what temp ?

The water temperature. I think it was mounted near the head on one of the water fittings.

Running rich probably, manifold pressure sensor? and the coil pack as well, maybe low or dead spark.

Sounds like it only happens in trafic. Not on a long highway trip. Starts stuttering with revs going up and down eratically, then dies.

Leaning towards that temp sensor yes.
