Neither of my two VW Sqbk books says anything about any lube, or not, between the two plates in the distributor. (Fuel Injection) I suspect grit or stickiness between these plates as cause of what I call the "driving through sand" effect...or, the car will momentarilly feel like it's pulling a trailer...then be free again a moment later. Vaccuum advance passes the suck-on-hose test. Or...what else would cause this? I fix usually by cleaning the whole distributor or replacing with other spare parts...but still don't know JUST what the problem is. __________________________________ Yahoo!
