I don't know about other states, but in NY, any place that sells a certain
amount of oil per year (can't remmeber the exact number) must take back
used oil for recycling!  Therefore, most places like AutoPalace or other
chains, and quick change places will take it.
I personally do my oil changes at the campus
auto shop, where the oil is used to run the furnace inthe shop.

I'm looking for a pair of tires for my 81 Rabbit.  The car came with
Michelin <mumble> on the rears and Sears Performance <mumble> at the front.
The Michelins are nearing their life, and I'm not happy with the Sears'
at all (they easily spin spin on wet pavement (I'm not a hard driver) and
they hydroplane at 50+), so they are going to the back.  I want to
spend less than $65 a tire including balancing and tax.  So here are the 
candidates: Pirelli P44, Dunlop GT Qualifier, B.F. Goodrich Radial T/A,
and possibly others.  What I need is an all-season that would be good
on snow.  I don't care much about treadlife as I will sell the car in
about 30k Mi (when I find a Scirocco I can fix at a good price).
I've been told that Pirelli P77 is excellent on snow and good all around,
would P44 have some of that?  What do you people recommend?

thanks.

Hi folks-
As you may know from some of my previous posts, I recently bought a 77 poptop 
which I have been trying to heat.  I have successfully replaced the heater
boxes and the warm air fan with good junk yard parts (for $25 - not bad, I think).  Anyway, the blower does not seem to have a lot of oomph.  When I pull the hose off the pipe in the front of the bus, underneath, I can feel reasonable air
flow, but when I connect it, I barely feel any flow at the dashboard, floor/door
vents, etc.  Also, I have a functioning gas heater in the system.
My question is this.  Is this all the flow I can expect from this system, and 
if so, what about adding a secondary warm air fan like the one sold in the J.C.
Whitney catalog?  Any help you can give me would be appreciated.

Also, does anyone have a list of catalog sources for aftermarket vw [A] or [W]
parts?

Regards,
Phil

Well, that location sounds like the fuel pump.  Why don't you see if the 
mounting has come loose first.  Otherwise, perhaps it is about to give 
up the ghost  and you may want to replace it (big $$ ~$185 US) before it 
leaves you stranded like mine did.
Good luck,

it to EC, perhaps they are trying to make their Marque jump AHEAD this time,

Bullshit.  Go back and kill the guy.  Most *good* filters (Fram, and Mann) 
have this "check valve" built in.  K-mart sells Frams for about $4.

Not necessarily. Intercooler refers to a device which is used to trans
fer heat from one closed system to another closed system, not necessarily
used to cool compressed air from a turbo. For example on Porsche's 962
you have an water/air intercoooler which uses the cooling system to
cool off the air in the turbo/intake system. 

Look at the name...it has two parts - Inter and Cooler. This implies
transfer between two things. The oil cooler in the GTI is an intercooler
because it transfers heat from oil to water. If it were a regular
cooler, then it would be a "radiator", it would be using the
air forced through it to "radiate" the heat away.

If your car is carburetted, I'd say it sounds like carburetor icing to 
me. As air flows through the venturi, it takes heat away from the 
carburetor, and if it's cold enough, your carburetor gets blocked with 
ice. 

Stopping for a few moments lets engine heat melt the ice, and it runs 
again. Make sure none of the hoses etc that direct heat to the carburetor 
or the air intake have been loosened or removed.

I'm speaking generically about carb icing here, 'cause I have no personal 
experience with Jettas.

(Real VW's can have this problem too)

I have never heard of a tachometer on a diesel VW or Audi, though I
have seen them in Mercedes/Benz sedans and Ford trucks with diesel
engines.  A gas tach would not work in a diesel car (not without some
innovative engineering) because a gas tach gets the RPM signal from
the ignition system pulses.  Diesels, running on compression ignition,
have no such signal.  I'm not sure if MB and/or Ford have fitted some
kind of electronic pickup to part of the engine, or if they simply
have a mechanical tachometer connected via cable to the engine, just
as a mechanical speedometer connects to the output of the
transmission.

Hi all,

There's been a lot of talk about heat these days, and
my 77 bus (no gas heater) is only getting colder.
Does the stock heat in the bus work well for anyone?
Would working on my heat exchangers/boxes/ducts improve
the heat or is it hopeless?  Could a salvaged Southwind
heater be easily adapted to an unequipped bus?

When you build a mid engine VW you just flip the ring gear in the transaxle.  It
doesn't require any special parts.  Although you need to reshim the ring and pinion

Oh! Oh! I did! I did.  They work just fine.  Kinda nifty too.  Just make sure 
you take the blinker wire off the front turn-signal, and TEST it!  Otherwise 
you could just get a ground, or the parking light wire.  Thats the only thing

A good idea for city traffic.

"Volkswagen AG is likely to release a Lancia Delta Integrale/Ford
RS Cosworth competitor in late '93. Based on the forthcoming four
