Braking on a '71 by
[email protected]
Hi all-
You've helped me with some strange stuff in the past, hopefully you can provide some insight as to what's going on with my '71 supervert...
Recently, the brakes have developed an issue where every other time I push the pedal, it goes right to the floor, as if I'm low on fluid or there's...

So it's been a decade... by
Lauren Bailey
Just wanted to drop in and say hi... I know a few of you are still out
there from a long time ago. I checked and it's been right at 10 years
since I used RAMVA, so thought I was long overdue for a hello!

My ex 67, "Frannie", was restored by
Jan Andersson[_4_]
....by a new owner after being passed around a couple of times
Pictures were sent to me by the current owner, who tracked me down.

hope the link works.
For some reason he replaced the one-year only 67 deck lid...

Kull... Somehow, I know the name, but can't quite place it.

See there's this Thing.... by
Jan Andersson[_4_]
For a while now, I have spotted a yellow Thing parked outside a house on
my way home, maybe 5 miles from my house. It looks to be in somewhat sad
shape, missing one headlight and looks like the RR tire may be shredded
to pieces. It has not moved, and I don't think it has been touched all...

Back in Miami by
ChrisKlinger
Hello Group. Back after 13 years. Sad to have noted Bob Hoover's
passing.
Beside Veeduber, missing SpeedyJim, VWgirl (became Jan's
wife), and a few dozen that I can't recall at the moment - Sorry
if you belong on my list and were not mentioned by name.
Happy to be back
Chris

Mechanical fuel sender by
ChrisKlinger
After fruitless forum searches (insert usenet plug here), I'm
still looking for a fix for my fuel sender.
The rubber boot around the actuator leaks, allowing fuel to
escape around the sender.
I can't see putting a garbage white plastic sender in :(
Any tips or links to a fix appreciated.

Heaterbox stuck to muffler by
KWW[_2_]
Hey guys, I am sure that this has happened often so before I do
something stupid and cause more work for myself I figured I'd tap into
the collective databanks of RAMVA. My 40 HP motor's muffler won't let
loose of the passenger side heater box on the exhaust tube. Looks to be
rusted on there...

4 stud Beetle wheel dimensions by
Allanw
Righteo,
Just sorting out the brakes on my 72 1200 Euro, and realised that one rim is
different to the rest.
3 and the (damaged) spare are 4.5Jx15, with ET34 offset, the other one is
4jx15 but I can't find the offset.
I want 2 to replace the odd one and the spare, but not sure what they are...

internetless purgatory by
ChrisKlinger
Hi Family and Friends
Just back after close to 3 weeks with no internet access; my
roomate didn't pay the bill (his part of the deal).
I couldn't take it anymore, and paid up today.
I feel like I've spent the better part of the month low on my
air-cooled coolant level ;)

Sorry for multiple posts by
P.J.Berg[_9_]
The free news-server I use suddenly decided to send a message which has
been sitting in the outbox for days, not only once but four times, oh joy!
If anyone knows of a reliable free news-server please let me know.

Kids and VW's... by

Groan...
I have 2 little boys: Solomon, 2.5 years and Van, 3 months.
Obviously, Van is pretty easy going on the cars, but Solomon has been known
to wreak a bit of havoc.... usually just easy things, like "helping" fix the
car by putting bolts thought the holes in the wheels, or inside the...

help guys! by

What a _wonderful_ day. My ghia attempted suicide. 15 miles
between jobs, and suddenly i'm trailing smoke like a stricken
fighter. Even the passenger compartment had clouds of smoke.
Pulled over, realized damage was done, continued on on 3
cylinders, with people behind me seriously irritated...
