Hi Howard, I've not heard of that before - I wonder if our retired VW mechanic on the VW-list has. You should take a look at the e-mail list www.vwtype3.org as there are lots of problems related to Type 3s. We've got most of them sussed now. There's a worldwide network of us. I got over to USA from the UK in 2004 - we all met up in Hershey, PA. Even got to see the Witness Squareback that Harrison Ford drove in the film! All the best, Dave.
