Pull the breather hose off with the engine running and watch to see what is coming out. At idle it is normal to see a bit of puffing. When you speed up the puffing should not increase much. If you are getting a lot of stuff coming out while just standing still, then this could indicate a blow-by problem. I realize that this require a pretty subjective judgment call. It might be best if you could compare your breather output with someone else's. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
