Someone else suggested that from another source. I hope I'm that lucky!
Thanks

Hey guys, need some diagnostic help. my '87 ITA Jetta won't start and I have a prospective buyer coming to look at it tomorrow. Ran it last at a DE a few months ago, wouldn't start Sunday morning.

here in Texas clean non-running cars are fairly plentiful and generally free for the asking. I gave away a cherry 1980 (sorry, Dick) because it isn't eligible for Spec7.
I have parted out 3 so...
As for protesting your buddies, I suggest you find someone running the modification in question that you do not know, or preferrably, do not like http://Forum.ImprovedTouring.com/it/smile.gif

Try it first without a muffler.
I ran a 2300 Pinto with a straight pipe ending in a downturn in front of the rear axle. I think it ran about 98db.
I intend to do the same thing on the Jetta

Add my vote for the Kirkey Intermediate. At about $200 it's a bargain. I use the 17" size. I'm 6'4", long of limb, short of torso, 200 lbs. In a 1st gen RX7, I welded a 1-inch square tube bridge...
I have run a new stock BW Brute Power setup the first 2 years, Then I put a 4-puck clutch disk in using the exisitng pressure plate. I have also used the Centerforce setup. All work fine,...
I have a very good friend who is in the trailer business. He sells mostly open car haulers, with a wide variety of options. Steve has a website that lets you configure your trailer and get a...
For the breakaway battery, you might consider a small solar battery charger. I keep a battery in my trailer to run a winch. A $10 solar charger from Harbor Freight keeps it hot between outings. ...
Now there's a new choice: 16V GLI A2
I called Topeka about getting my '87 GLI 16V classified in IYA. I was told the Comp Board had discussed and OK'd it Jan 9.
One justification for a cell is if you run enduros. A stock tank/pickup will not get the last few gallons. It will starve out on corners with 3 gallons remaining so you have to pit more often. So...
Jake - and others with loose hex-adapters. You can tighten those up with a sharp punch and a friend holding a solid backup "anvil". Just peen 4 to 6 dimples on each of the 6 faces. Your release hub...

TURN-IN Spacers:
Is this just a shim in the shape of the 2-hole flange? What thickness?
Are these something you make, or something you buy?
I'm having a hard time visualizing how it would...
If you dropped the driveshaft already, fluid will leak out of the back of the transmission.
As for synchro problems, if you aren't using Redline MTL in your transmission, you should be. It's the...
David,
Last weekend we ran at Motorsports Ranch. Tony Lee and Donato Forte were there to decide the 2002 title. I'd bet money that both of them are legal. But the fastest guy there, setting a...
Sure sounds like you are boiling fluid. Is one of those two hoses pointed at the caliper?
Are you running the big tin shims between pad and caliper? New ones give slightly better feel, but old...
Followup - ducts worked out fine, no wheel interference, pads got plenty hot but not too hot. The ducts even survived a 90 mph trip through a tire wall, which is more than I can say for the bodywork...
Just be sure your cage guy knows how to build an SCCA cage. Most circle track rules allow a lot of "latitude" in design. It might be worth your while to take him a copy of the rules that pertain to...
Hey guys, I can tell you that Mazda Comp no longer services those jets separately. I tried to order an assortment last week.
So I checked with Mazdatrix. After more trouble that it should have...
As a followup to the project, I had attached the hose to the front scoops as I described above. Once the foam had hardened, I trimmed the excess with a hacjsaw blade, then painted it all black....
