What to do if you got a first diesel  ??? ----- read and read and read some more.

Here is my  SAGA.    :      My first dieselcar ?    Olds 5.7 V8   ----and why do I
now do my own diesels ?    Look up a number here and see ---like Shalyn  and more
and me having a diesel done wrong by a SHOP.

After getting stung by the gasser mechanic type who sez  a piston is a piston at it goes up and
down ?   ----right but not so fast mein Kammeraden.

His diagnosis  was way wrong. -------- I discovered in the end it was a simple injector
stuck open.

I then hit the local Library ---and took out any book I could find about diesels.   And low and 
behold I was pretty good at diesels in a couple of years.

For a lot og guys it takes about 5 years to become really good on
Rabbits. --------- not worth it ?   --I say it is. ------------   When you find out that you
can get 78 miles to a gallon Imp  ----?   it feels a lot better.
And that is on a 20 year old "Juncer"  ---- gotten for parts only.  (500 dollars Canadian).
Bunny Bondo now has close to 300 000  klicks and was never overhauled.

Just looked in the cookie jar and there is more cash there than I paid for all four
Rabbits  ----so I am hunting for the next one.   This time I will not say NO turbo.
This time it must be turbo.

Up here in the sticks a Rabbit pickup  ---is   premium .  SO ?.  just maybe.

I want to get one from Arizona  west Texas or California. --------why so much money
in the mattress ?     IRS   IRS   and Canadian Customs and Revenue Collection.
absolute scumbags.

Rabbits have been scrapped for tower rust ?   Denmark makes a super fix for that.

Just ask   BOW WOW   ---but they could not supply as of a couple of  years ago.
Supplier in denmark went out of business.    But I tracked them down ---in Danish.
I speak it.
