bout,this issue. . So far I only used a mixture of diesel #1 and NEW Can=
ola oil , about 50 to 50 by volume. However I do have lots of deepfryer c=
anola "varnish" in the kitchen. Add to that the knowledge of the inside of =
BOSCH pumps.So a word of caution if you use used oil in 1.6L and 1.5L VW di=

ber there are lots of O rings used and the drive blocks for the governor=
flyweights are (elastomeric drive coupling?) not metal ---some kind of ru=
bber or plastic.Hope the Val Chistian connection has a chemical point of vi=
