I don't think power or amperage is an issue here, as none of these take any current at all compared to the ignition coil. Getting wires to each of them is pretty straightforward, too, as VW just made a simple wire that daisy- chained the power from each device to the next. "Ball Jet" ? The only ball jet item I know of would be a type of float valve that used a steel ball, but these have no special shutoff features, so I don't know what you mean here. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
