Hi all,
Can anyone tell me at what milage a type 3 engine generally requires to
be rebuilt? I've been getting engine knocking at low rpm that goes away
when I accelerate (it knocks at idle up to 25 mph). My friend the VW
nut says it's time to rebuild the engine. He thinks the connecting rods
are going. The Baroness has 112,000 miles on her. What do you guys
think?
thanx,
Lori & The B., '71 AT FI SB
