I suspect that the rebuild was not necessary, but you probably enjoyed doing it anyway. The first thing to do would be to make sure that you're tuning it up correctly. The 72 is unique and the ONLY manual that gives correct instructions for this year is the Bentley. What have you been using? You should also make sure that the mechanical advance mechanism in your distributor is working properly. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Too much?
