Tapets prob
Hi 'm new to the list,
I bought an 87 1.6 GT Scirroco in May this year, it had 149,000 miles on the
clock when I bought it and has been relatively problem (usual maintenence)
until recently.
When I bought it I noticed that when the fuel gauge registered under a quarter
of a tank then when I put my foot down I'd get a sudden drop in power on
reaching about 3000 rpm for a few seconds then the power would appear. I put
this down to a semi blocked fuel line and was going to do something about it.
However it seemed to clear up after a new lot of fuel. It occasionally does it
(usually just below quarter of a tank) any suggestions.
Secondly, over the last month or two my tapets have been making a hell of a
noise until the car gets slight above normal temperature, then they shut up, I
have checked the oil level, which appears to be fine. I have done 6,000 miles
since purchase so am about to put it through a full service. Any suggestions
as to my prob cos I'm not sure if my tapets are self adjusting or not.
On the tire thing, I have a set of 15" alloys that I need tires for, any suggestions
for the type of tire to go for? ATM I have 14" crappy wheels on.
Anyone know where I can get a new rear windscreen wiper motor from for mine.
Ans does anyone know someone who can get a front and rear bumpers for a
Scirroco Storm (84 I think) Mk II in excellent condition, because his is a show
car and the bumpers are a little scratched.
Cheers guys,
Rob
