well, got to the root of that little problem. the housing was split around the base of the return to the tank. I should get a few more miles out of a tank now.
while i was spending i thought i may aswell get a few bits needed for the suspension change.
I've already got the springs, PI -40 mm , I used them on my old Jetta and was pretty impressed. I would normally use Eibach but they're not really within budget.
I'm replacing the balljoints in an attempt to sort the slightly heavier steering when turning right.
It's not too bad but it is a bit annoying even tho' I've pretty much got used to it now.
I also got these
I'm not that arsed about bling but I couldn't get any plastic ones from the scrapyard as there were none on any of the vw's they've got.
I'm pretty sure they eat 'em or summat.
oh yeah, the bumper strip saga. After waiting weeks and going to VW 3 times in one week to pick it up when it was supposed to have arrived each time......I've finally given up and got a refund.
I'll have to scour a few more scrappys for one i suppose unless anyone reading this is aware of anywhere i can get one from. ECP and GSF don't sell the strip ,only bumpers with it as part of the moulding.
