apologies... I'm new and desperate to get my car running!  I start work at midnight and travelling across London at that hour has proven less than fun in times past....

To rectify...

Hi!  My name is Rachael and I'm new.  I've only owned a vw for the past year.  Before that, I had not owned or driven any cars for about four years.  Back then, it was essentially all Fords as I lived in Australia and without a huge budget, the choice was between Ford and Holdens (General Motors).

I learned a little about car engine maintennance from my elder brother.  He was a car fanatic and owned MANY ace cars that he suped up himself.  Sadly my brother passed away much too young a few years ago, so I'm asking all you online older brothers for help now.  I really want to fix this car myself - if possible.

Any help would be great, thanks folks.
