Bryce, the mechanic that I took my car to called me back after he had time to give the engine a look over. His recommendation was for a new engine after he had torn into mine. One of the things that he found was that the fuel pump had caught fire at one time and been put out with an extigusher. So new Engine is going to be installed in car; around $1,500.00; rebuilt 1600 cc dual ported now. That will also take car of the problem that I had with one plug that got tighter as I tried to remove it; wisely just put back in with out removing any further. Also, should fix the problem with oil leakage that I had. Also, had a broken cooling fan that was replaced. Thank to all that answered my call for help everyone on this list is a great assist for those with questions. Thanks again, Ken Waddell '71 SQ Awaiting Transplant ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
