Tuning links and advice.


I'm up to tuning me Baja. I think it needs it since it's only running on the two cylingers on the left hand side. Driverside manifold is stone cold even after 3 mins idling.

Anyhow - want to go right over it and get it up to scratch. I'd take it to the mechanic but that's what I did and now it runs worse than before it went. At least the brakes are A1! (I hope).

I found this: http://www.aircooled.net/gnrlsite/resource/articles/jetting.htm 

and this:
http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Lane/1970/tuneuplinks.html 

on the forum. If you have any other handly links and suggestions I'm willing to listen.

The Bronze.

Bronze

this is the best one by far

http://www.geocities.com/aussiebug1970/ 

Rob (Aussiebug???) use to post here regularly - but he got a job that took him 24/7.
I have emailed him a few times and he answers - just too busy to post.

Hi Rob! - if you are reading

Anyway - he must still be active as he redirected his site a fe months ago

Should talk to whoever and get it "sticky" on the Frequent Questions section

Thanks Barry - I knew there were a few good links around. I did a quick seach and found those two. Thought they would be good together with any others people had to add.

My battery is cactus so I don't think I can go the whole way without replacing that first. Will do the valves today and lube, check the dizzy. Bit of moisture in it unfortunately. These sites are a great read and the tuning of the PICT 34 was a gold mine for me.

Yes I remember Aussiebug - met him once to I think at the Nationals a couple of years ago to I think. Will have a look at th at link. I printed the other two off and stored then in plastic folders as I think there will be a few occasions I can refer back to them.

This is the redirect: http://www.vw-resource.com/ 

Cheers

Bronze.
