I seem to recall that the template adjustment was meant to be done without any carpet in the way, so you might want to watch out for that. FYI, I measured a pushrod here and got 152.5mm. I only measured one this time, but I'm pretty sure I measured several the last time and they were all pretty close. I'd be interested to know how yours turns out after you use the template to adjust it. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Too much?
