Bug master cylinder: Residual Pressure Valves? by
Well, the brakes went soft on the 'ol 69 bug, and a puddle appeared under the master cylinder, so it was time for a new one. Went to the FLAPS and got a new German FTE/FAG M/C. It looked quite similar to the original (yes, it was the 35 year old original, complete with a blob of body...

I'm glad you found what you needed. I know what you are talking about the not posting your e-mail...... I don't either. I thought you might benefit from pics of my bus with the windshield and dash removed, it's basically gutted for rust repair under the window seal. What a coincidence so...

Front torsion bar removal by
Not sure it is a good idea removing an entire front torsion bar. I have a beck spyder and removed the four "smaller bars" from the upper torsion housing because of the weight of the spyder. I did find that I had to use the adjustment nuts to reset the height i wanted. I also would be interested...

Look if you want too get angry with someone that's fine. All I wanted was some help from a fellow air-cooled enthusiast not an argument about whether it is safe to give out personal information in open news groups. I work in the IT industry and I know what I know. Ask Joey he'll tell you. IT'S NOT...
