I've notice that all of the vacuum connections are old and corroded. I'm sure that VW will happily sell me new connectors for some outragoeus price. The look like little rubber tubes. Is there an afforable option for replacing these? I am not talking about the vacuum tubes themselves, those appear t...

Engine Performance

Hi All, I've seen a question like this in other posting but they did not look identical. Sorry if this is a duplicate. I finally have my cabby dried out. I gave it a nice tune-up, new filters, etc. It starts fine, but I have to keep my foot on the accelerator to keep it running. When I drive it arou...

Mixed up Relays

I am an idiot. I will freely admit it. If there is anybody who can help me out of my idiot-inspired jam I would gretaly appreciate it.
