RE: [T3] SOS someone help before i nut up and bomb my vw




Holy cow, I'm having the same Á-ïËon my dual carbed 1600 dual port 
motor.  1 and 3 are weak, yet have good compression.  I've tried flat 
sanding and notching the manifolds, and all the usual spark plug 
shenanigans and I've also been suspecting an irregular cam. I'm stymied. 
This is a recently rebuilt motor, with a c/w crank.  I built it 
myself,and while I make no claims at being an expert I did take pains to 
balance the rods and check the deck heights correctly.  That doesn't 
mean I did it right, but I think I did.Rings not seating?  Oddly 
coincidental valve seating problems? Enquiring mind wants to know!!

Don't bother replacing the cam, it didn't help mine.  I don't have any 
idea what to try next.  Where Jim, Toby and Brian at?
