There's only one reverse gear, so there's really nothing to "kick down" into. > By the way, should there be something hooked to the little paddle > on the KDS? No, but the plate on the throttle shaft should come within about 1mm of it when the throttle is wide open. Then pushing the pedal farther will move this plate farther without opening the throttle any more. This trips the KDS. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
