This is not the point, happy or not. I only wanted to ephasize that the motor probably has good compression and is in relative good condition in absence of compression data. That was mainly to address J. Adney's earlier post suggesting a valve job and inquiring about the compression values. Furthermore, the motor leaks throughout, but in small amounts and thats why I started questioning the oil pump. I don't think its ready for a tear down yet, but if I have to take the heads off to replace the push rod tube seals, then might as well go the full 9 yds! thanks for your thoughts. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Neil Verdon" <Neil.Verdon@t-online.de> > well if your happy with it doing 70 all day then just leave it ! mmm i > gues you know in your heart if it needs attention or not ? if you have oil > leaking from everywhere and possible low compression? mayby its time to > think about a teardown and rebuild bently and haynes being your best buddeis > in this department. > good luck. > --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by SURFSIDE INTERNET] ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
