I'd even run the AT thru the gears to get oil pumped all thru that system also. I wouldn't race the engine, but it would be fine to just hold the throttle at medium rpm while it ran up. I'd let the engine come down to idle while shifting, especially from forward to reverse and back. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
