Re: Rotella users: T4 or T6?
Yep
Ideally I'd like to run the ashless aviation stuff, like AeroShell 65 - basically an SAE30. Of course, when I wanted to use it, what happened? Shell stops making it.
I know some folks with VW's that are using the AeroShell products, and seem to be happy with it.

Tires - Kanati Mongrel 25x8r-12 vs 27x9r-12?
The 25" version is fairly popular, but I've got space to run the 27" too. Rim width should work with it, barely. Considering what I've been running for an offroad tire for several years now, the 27" should still work, but will be a bit more rounded.
If anyone is using the 27", have you had any ...

Re: Rotella users: T4 or T6?
<t>Thanks for that reply. Agreed with the issues surrounding synthetic, I'll only run mineral oil in the old engines.<br/>

I'll be doing an oil change with the VR1, and at the end of the season I'll do an oil analysis to see what it's done. I might start another thread on that probably in the ...

Re: Setting Timing
From what I recall, I just set basic timing and it was fine. I played around with it a bit, but returned to the basic setting.

Had a 2012 FUSO earthcruiser, got rid of it. Nightmare as far as reliability.

Re: Haflinger doors - let me know if info needed
I am still into my "restoration" (well ... ok ... buckets of soap and water, .... and PB Blaster). The doors show very little use and look factory new. Let me know if any of you need measurements or photographs of the doors, or the door components. It would be very easy for me to do at this point ...

Re: curious of the wheel/tire setup here
That's a good deal. I always seem to see them for over 1.5k, guess I should start watching more. I wonder how brutal shipping is to Alaska?

Re: Are the old weber and NDIX carbs interchangeable?
Ah, got it. Sounds like a variation on the good old off idle bog. Also see that in 'mogs, VW's.
Have you checked for air leaks? Accelerator pump working ok? Set idle speed and adjustments?
Yet something else might be to check your distributor advance mechanism, make sure it's functioning properly ...

Re: Are the old weber and NDIX carbs interchangeable?
Thank you.
Wouldn't happen to know much about the weber carbs would you? Any advice for slight throttle popping?
What do you mean by throttle popping? I know about the throttle off idle bog, deceleration popping is common, crummy accelerator pumps, air leaks around the butterfly shaft, flooded ...
