Noise question by Mike West
I guess I have gotten soft. My regular ride is a 2000 Toyota Tundra. Yesterday I took my 66 bug out for drive and went to one of the local Cruise nights. I can feel every bump and piece of dirt I drive over in my bug. Part of it may be the 2 inch dropped spindles and adjustable front end. That...

Finally got my 71 Autostick home by Noice87
I went to go pick up my 71 Autostick. It had caught fire and my mechanic put a different engine in it. My house is about 30 minutes from where my mechanic lives. I went by Wal-mart first to get a fire extingusiher. It was driving good. Getting up to 65 and 70 in second gear. Then it started...

Incontinent Carburetor by Dangermouse
Why has my carb (Solex 28Pict1) suddenly taken to piddling gas when (but only when) the engine is shut down; and can I fix it? It drips for about 10 seconds or so like there's some pressure forcing gas out, it is visible at the throttle shaft but hard to say where its originating from. Happens...

78 SuperBeetle Headlight problem by Starr749
I've owned this 78 SuperBeetle Convertible for over a year now, been doing some minor work on it (mostly interior) to fix it up. As a machine it has always held up pretty well, except for an odd slow drain on the battery. I've never quite put my finger on the reason for the drain, one of the first...
