Hey, this is Toby in Portland.  Geez, spend some time at home putting in a
filter system for the water (I should be a
plumber...brazing/welding/soldering is in my blood!) and relaxing and
suddenly I miss a call for help :)  I live on the west side of Portland in
the Beaverton area (Cedar Hills to be more exact).  Peter and Phillip live
on the east side of Portland.  There are a couple of others who live in the
Portland area.

Okay, I don't have any extra parts for sale, sorry.  I unusually just buy
what I need, however, now that I have more space I can start hoarding a
little more :)  Yes, I do have a FI tester and I highly recommend you keep
the FI!!  Also keep that automatic!  My web site is at the bottom of my
signature and you can find a decent amount of information there, though it's
mostly for custom applications.  Most of it is my own stuff and experience
but I also have bits of informational wealth from other's on this list.  I
have a search engine so you can search my web site (and only my web site,
not the entire web!) to make things easier.  The Type 3 information starts
here:  http://www.icbm.org/erkson/ttt/ghost-page.htm.  For starters, here's
my baby's stats:  http://www.icbm.org/erkson/personal/VWSTATS.HTM.

I'm not an expert with carbs nor FI.  Any work with FI would require the
Bentley and the knowledge of this list for any particularly difficult stuff
that may crop up.  Things have mellowed out here at work so if any one in
the area wants to get together then I'm up for it.  My baby is currently not
driveable because the electric fuel pump went out and I haven't had the
desire to re-install the stock mechanical pump.

There is a shop on the east side that Peter Parker said is pretty good --
run by a couple of German fellows.  He can give you the exact name of the
place.
