The way Loren describes that color --- fits my first one   1980  Rabbit.

RUSTY    the one that went berserk on lube oil from the sump.

to a tee.(T?)

"Bunny Rusty"   the  "The Iron oxide Queen".   Was she worth the 300 Canadian that
I paid ?   every penny in education.

What was the most important that I learned ?   that this is a true high speed diesel.

10 000 --20 000 RPM ?  and no damage. That blew my socks off. I would have said
valves will hit pistons.  ---no way they did.

And smoooooth ?  it sounded like a turbine..That little 1.5L NA VW diesel is one
hell of a fine piece of machinery. ------ I was hooked.

NO vibrations whatever.   And the Bosch VE pump is still working too. Take that.

Hagar.
