Well, OK then :-)

Post by wrm »

Rules sez I have to introduce myself...

Been into aircooled VW-ish things for a while, being responsible for the world's slowest Puma rebuild. Drove an 1800 Fox for a while, since then it's been the TDi estate, now closing in on 400 000k (but my wife's one is on 450 000k so...).

Here because I need to make the family Volksiebus work better, but I'm finding there's very little info on the 2.3i 5 cylinder engine around...
