<x-charset iso-8859-1>I got the unladen spring length measurement from the larger Clymer manual,
"VW Squareback and Fastback 62-73". I guess the longer spring was somehow
giving me more pressure? If the oil light is coming on briefly but
regularily and the valve isn't sticking then am I right to assume it's oil
pump or overhaul?
Thanks
