And > what's a good method of cleaning out the gas tank, Burn the gas in another car; it will be fine. Standard brake fluid, like antifreeze, can be put down the drain (they mix with water.) To clean the tank remove it and the filter sock from the outlet and then take it to a radiator shop. If your car will be out of circulation for awhile, just slosh some oil all around the interior for now and have it cleaned out just before you reinstall it. > I am missing the crank pulley nut from the engine as well.

What's supposed to be there? It was a kind of textured grey vinyl covered cardboard. They often get ruined by water leaks in the rear window. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
