N/A Guys check in!
We've got an 86 Jetta 4-door 1.6L/5-speed. Been sitting a few month, needs an injection pump.
My uncle has 8 N/A diesels. Rabbit pickups to Fox's Jetta's and golfs. |
theres not many people here if any
|
I know there is at least 1 guy here besides me.
|
my uncle had a diesel rabbit in college and he beat the crap out of it. before he had a truck that was his woods vehicle he took hunting because it was the only car that would take all the big bumps on the ground and not break. i know he also used to do a lot of top speed runs in it because he worked at a small municipal airport and when it wasnt busy he would go do it. this was of course in the 80's way before 9/11 or strict regulations. ive always kinda wanted one because they seem like they are tough little engines
|
They are tough! Our 86 is rusted to hell, we see ground when we drive. But it has 250xxx miles and keeps going, my uncle just junked a golf with over 500xxxmiles on it, never taken apart or rebuilt.

Yup, they get 55+mpg. The one we picked up is getting a new head, gaskets, head studs, new ip, injectors, turbo kit, 5 speed upgrade, and some other small stuff. I shooting to get at least 60mpg out of it on a regular basis.:rocking: I found a pic of a caddy on google for you aggie.
