OK, I'm new---please forgive my silly question(s), but why does this Hagar
chap always talk about himself in the 3rd person and in broken sentences?
(Is there something I'm missing here or is that just the way it is?)

Sounds to me like a leaky main shaft seal on the
injection pump.

Subject: Re: [Vwdiesel] pix of my new car ! 88 Jetta GL Turbo Diesel
Date: Sun, 6 Apr 2003 07:36:37 -0400

1988 was the first year for significant cosmetic changes to the A2 cars
(Golf/Jetta). Exterior: 3-bar grille, new front doors (reloacated rear-view
mirrors, elimination of 1/4 windows), wider body side mouldings, and
different paint colours. Interior: use of "chunkier" switchgear (column
stalks), new steering wheel, new interior patterns. In 1990, the base
Jettas got 14" wheels as standard equipment. My favourite year of the A2s
is the early 1990 models, which had all of the updated exterior trim
(including the 14" wheels) of the late model cars, minus the big bumpers,
which arrived in 1990.5. IMHO, the big bumpers make the car look heavy.

Congratulations on your purchase.
