This observation is puzzling, or do you mean that you have to wiggle things just to get the starter to turn over? The VR serves as a junction for wires from the generator and the battery and to the car's electrical system. If one of these wire is making a bad (loose) connection it would create problems. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Too much?
