  • may 21 and may 27. i made a small ignition timing change but other than that, just a couple of nice days for a drive and an adventure out in the grass. empi header is holding up so far. one of the trips netted 28.7 mpg. thumbnail is a view looking south from the highest hill in the park.

    The lohan one was good also.

      i picked up the original from my library the day after i was down there. the library didn't have lohan's. i'll dig around and find it online somewhere. tubi, hulu or something like that. later though cause it's time to go catch some fish.

    just wanted ask.. my blinkers and tail light wont come on when i push the pedal or use the turn signals. the emg flashers work but dident for a sec then started. could it be the flasher unit.. does it control the turn signals and the brake lights? all bulbs and fuses work fine.

      check out your wiring diagram at thesamba: www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/wiringt1.php
      all flashing goes through the flasher box. corrosion can interrupt electricity so wiggle all the relevant connectors and fuses.

    running it without the vacuum advance hose is ok? what does it do?

      without a vacuum hose it's pretty much an 009. the vacuum canister has a lever arm that is attached to the advance mechanism. under light load the cannister can pull more advance. under load, it turns off and doesn't pull advance. once of these days i'll have to see if it works. it's ancient.
