Here's a prob i was experiencing with my square that i'd like some help on. Ok, the car starts up fine, and i can drive it great for about 10 minutes, until, what i believe is happening is that it is getting too hot, where it starts to run rough, and it begins to shake horribly (not side to side, but i guess, front to back, like a really bad slipping clutch), i do know that it is either related to the engine or the transmission because when i push on the clutch the problem goes away, i have no clue where to start trying to fix this. If i haven't been descriptive enough, please ask me and i'll clarify it some more. The engine has less than 100 miles on it since i rebuilt it with all new parts, i just checked the valves (to make sure they weren't way out of whack) and everything checked out, it is a '72 FI Square, i am using Pertronix Electronic Points system (what's that about i recall i heard on here? If anyone knows about that, please let me know) so i know the gap is correct, i just can't figure this out. 2. Ok, when i drive the car on a windy day, this is probably normal, i don't know since this is the first square i've owned and in the bus i used to own i never noticed this, ok, anyways, on windy days when i am driving, whenever the wind gusts, i can hear my engine rev up. Is this just a "natural turbocharging" caused by a lot of air being forced through the air intake slits on the sides on the car, or could this indicate an air leak somewhere? 3. Last but not least, i have always been confused about the timing and cheap gas issue. Ok, so would there be any harm in running high octane gas in a 1600cc, '72 FI car? Because i know if the octane is too low, you run the risk of knocking (or is it pinging?), but are there any adverse affects of running high octane gas (i think the highestÙ˜-ly see here in indiana is 91)? Would i then have to set the timing the other way? Would the engine run too hot? Thank you, and i'm sorry this is so long, i am just anxious to get on enjoying this summer with the VW Jacob Schroeder '72 FI Square _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

I think your memory has failed you. 68-9 used the bullets, however, the color of the bullets may have varied for different markets. Here in the US (where Road & Track probably got their test car) all 68-9s had bullets.

The FI is an excellent system. Don't assume that a conversion to carbs will be pain-free. Both systems have their learning curves, but the carbs, since they are not OE, have limited support. You cannot buy carbs that will just bolt on and be jetted correctly and will run flawlessly from the start. Most people consider the switch because they don't understand the FI. Once they switch to carbs they discover that they don't understand carbs. Remember: the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

Thanks matt What kind of car do you have? A Notchback, Squareback, Fastback, or Type 34? Wes«ñýuMetric has most of the rubber provided you don't mind using "alternate" rubber. You should be able to refit a Notchback or a Type 34 for about $600. For example, three door rubbers from a Type 1 Ghia makes two door rubbers for a Type 34, and it goes on and on. You should be willing to use Zep's quick grip adhesive, which requires refrigeration when not in use.
