Yeah, the upside is the car is in 200% better condition than it was before. It will be no big deal from here to go through the regular adjustments. On the Bentley: Who keeps this manual in stock? I noticed that my local VW shop did not have one... figured I could get it easily on-line.

It may be that things are just carboned up from lack of spark previously, so it's possible that this may clear up on its own. I wouldn't count on it, though. I'd concentrate on the standard items: valve adjustment, timing, dwell, advance mechanisms, fuel pressure, system regulation voltage.... - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
