What are the best places (books or on-line) to increase my general knowledge
of my VW Rabbit type engine?
Background - I have raced cars (road racing SCCA type) for a fair time.
I currently have in my +/- 1,000 pound race car an engine based on a
VW (US = rabbit) 1.6 L diesel block,
Head is marked with VW/Audi stamps "21" "WWO 1.6"
"049.103.373B" "583780" - been lead to believe that confirms it...

Could very loosely come under the heading of maintenance.
I have a very industrious spider living in the drivers rearview
mirror housing of my car. Has been there for weeks
During the day it's parked outside my w/shop, but without fail
every time I get in the car to drive home he/she has spun a thin
web over the mirror, and which stretches back halfway along the
door.
How do I get rid of it...

Hi Folks!
I'm asking for a friend of mine - a new owner of this model.
1600 motor, Weber carbs, points ignition, manual choke.
The car refuses to start on the self starter when warm. If pushed
it'll start right away. He's changed the starter motor to no avail.
Any ideas?
Bill, DK

It stands to reason that the bigger the car - the bigger sized seats it
will have .
So , The flat bottom part of the seats will be measured and if they go
over a certain size , Then a charge of £10 per square inch will added to
the car road fund tax disc .
For example , If the total area size is 12 inches over the alloted size
then £120 will be added to the yearly road tax .

Not labour - the torys thought this one up .
Any tyre over the size 155x13 should be subject to a instant £25 per
tyre tax levy - as obviously large/big tyres need more metal and rubber
to make them - and cost more to dispose of .
In a way this does make good sense as if you have something that is more
damageing to the enviroment than other similar smaller products - then
it is only fair...
