Hey Guest one of our sponsors Progressive Parts is running Black Friday and Cyber Monday offers - more details here
Spot on, and while you're at it it's worth replacing the o-ring and getting a spare clip if you can, (clips are a bit fiddly and easy to drop/lose), these are the part no's (checked them on vagcat.com):
sensor #059919501A
"O" ring #N90316802
"C" clip #032121142
sensor #059919501A
"O" ring #N90316802
"C" clip #032121142
Well I checked the numbers under the Leon section of vagcat and the sensor number matches the one in Pabs useful part numbers sticky at the top of the Leon Mk1 forum so I'd say so.

hmmm... in a comedy spanish accent (a bit like Manuell from Fawlty Towers)...
what Vagcat?

You have to register but it's no biggie, awesome looking Beetle by the way!
Thanks Nick!
No worries.
Had a browse through your Dub resto site, made me go all reminiscent (1st car was a Gold '73 1300), nice to see a job done properly.
Where are the coil packs located? Think one of mine may has gone as it sounds like one of my cylinders is no longer functioning
yeah, MAF was my next port of call...
replaced the coolant temp sensor last night, and disconnected the battery for a while, and then reconnected and "realigned the throttle body" using the key method - which I'm a bit sceptical about and not sure if it's actually possible withouth vagcom, but thought it was worth doing anyway since I had to disconnect the battery anyway to hopefully clear out all the adaptive memory in the ECU.
driven last night and this morning and so far all good!

cheers guys!
bug is backfiring and running like a bag of sh*t at the moment, so need to take the carb off and re-condition it i reckon... why do neither of my cars work?! am i cursed?!
anyway, went to drive to work this morning and...
the problem was back again... 
so, when it does it next, i'll be disconnecting the MAF to see if that's it...

Sold the car to buy a....
get platinum spark plugs its a must!! carefull when you adjust the gaps on them too because you'll end up braking the coating if you hit them too hard....just go steady you'll be fine
Get some Wynn's carb and throttle body cleaner (£2.90 from halfords)
Remove the air filter housing (Give it a good clean out as well)
Use small, short squirts around the butterfly (round piece in the throttle body with a hinged tunnel through the middle) in the throttle body to remove the carbon deposits. Repeat this a few times while the engine is idling.
Get someone to hold the revs on a little and repeat again with small,short squirts. Make sure the other person keeps the revs at a constant level.
Let the car idle for about 10 minutes and then refit everything.
Go for a drive.
May also help if you get someone to reset the values of the throttle body and the EGR valve (Not using VagCom).
