Topless Rabbit Forums

They had me restrained in a cell somewhere. made me look at pictures of a Prius. I thought torture was illegal.

I used to joke that I only got wet if I put the top UP! Anything over 30mph and the water goes right over ya!

HI! Haven't been here in a long time and I thought I'd say howdy!

Interesting gauge positioning, there. I've known people who liked to twist them so all the needles pointed straight up or straight across under normal driving conditions, but there seems to be some other theory at work here... ;) Yep, the theory of gravity! :lol: None of the gauges were tied down a...

Alternators rarely good bad slowly. They usually die a horrible noisy death. If it's going bad slowly it's probably the regulator or the brushes which are built-in to the regulator. Regulators are small little items that tend to follow me home after visiting junkyards. Two phillips head screws and i...

I'll add my $.02 as well, it was a wonderful weekend even with th e adventure of the Friday night rain (will I get wet? Will Christine get wet? How wet can William get?) It's already a plan to attend for next year. In fact I will be back in Chattanooga in July for something and now I know of an awes...

Final result (radio isn't pushed in as far as it could go.)

Wow! Native-texan reminded me that this is the 19th NOT the 26th like I had written down. Soooo, I can still get there. I need to farm out the kids. The cabby is currently beheaded and not ready for prime time so I'll bring the Jetta which is fine since it's getting good mileage. But that means I ne...

They're not very accurate, certainly not accurate enough to tune a turbo system. You might discern when the system goes way off range but you'll find it'll be changing constantly and not of much use. These gauges and other lower priced ones use the existing O2 sensor for their signal. Real tuning sy...

No, CIS comes in many flavors, the Cabby used CIS-Lambda and most MK2s used CIS -E or CIS-Motronic if they used CIS at al!

Here's how to do it right!!http://www.brokevw.com/020flange.html

or is the Vortex Cabby section filling up with MK3 owners?

VW used 3 speed fans and 4 speed fans. During my junkyard raids I've scored a handfull of both. I even have a 3 speed switch with 5 contacts on it!! Heavans knows what it's used for...

If you have access to a vacuumn guage check to see if you have about 15-20 mmHg at idle if not you either have a horrible leak or the timing is retarded.
