Thanks by
Every once in awhile you run across a person that does some very nice for
you,
for no other reason than he's a nice guy and wanted to help.
Not too many of those left these days.
My deepest appreciation to you, Muadib..........

VW Trends Problem by
Last issue I got was in March (probably like everyone else). Subscription is
paid through April 06. Last week, I got "Eurotuner" in the mail in lieu of
VW Trends. Since I have less than zero interest in water-cooled VWs (been

Taken off the adjuster bracket to weld on the 68 bracket.

New Panel! Should I strip it? by
Hi All,
New front panels for my 68 bay arrived from GSF today!
I have a couple of questions:
1) Should I strip the black stuff before etch primeing it or just etch prime on top?
2) Should I use the fold over flap at the bottom like 74 bay ( would it make this section stronger)
or...

Battery drain - because of fuel injection! by
(Just) Allan
Hi folks... I have a 1982 air cooled, fuel injected transporter van.
For a couple of years the battery will go flat after a few days. I
inserted a multimeter between the battery and one lead, removed all
fuses and made sure nothing else was powered (it has no clock for
instance).
Sure enough,...

Is this a scam or what? by
1 who waits
I keep getting this recording that says; My auto warrantee has most
likely expired and I must hurry to extend it. They always say it's my
second notice , while in truth they've called a dozen times.
What makes me skeptical is that my car is 47 y.o.
Could it be they offered a warrantee for VW's...

oil temp. by
187
i am using a meat thermometer in the dipstick hole to check oil temp.
the probe doesn't quite touch the oil when running though.
am i getting an accurate reading like this, or could i be getting a higher
reading due to the air in the case being hotter than the oil?
thanks in advance for any replies
