Mark Shepherd take no offence please ! --- off the MARK ? a pun a feeble attempt
to be funny.
Lets face it you have no fear of writing it as you think ? Your threads about
the space ship was a great help to me ---when I finally got one. I had to go a
way back in archives to find it . But Loren and you got me really trucking with
Bunny Bondo.
I see very little in my Bentley about the LDA ---- in the end I got it nailed right down.
Sandy Cameron underlines the reason for putting a feeler test on # 1. Piston. in the
Hillbilly TUNING procedures. The mark can be wrong .
Personally I never seen one that was wrong.
I am still playing with the GALVANIC radiator and investigating GLAZING of
cylinder walls. --- even to define glazing is difficult.
Polished and Shiny and Glazed ? not all the same. And to seat rings on a diesel
is difficult partly because fuel is such a good upper cylinder lubricant.
This is the way I do it : Run her LEAN and use Mineralube only. At least
for the break in. NO I do not use diesel rated Oil. ----NO need. (not to be found)
Let your turbo cool down a bit longer ---that's all. There are diesels running on
nothing but Mineralube NO additives of any kind Dino oil and very expensive
diesels at that. I sure would like to know the cetane number for BUNKER C oil.
If ALL of America started driving Rabbits tomorrow ? would it make a difference ?
Bunny Bondo 78 miles on a gallon Imp and still does way more than 100 kmt
on the flat. Yes it would be a Quantum leap ( eh Mark ? ). Give me a brand new
Rabbit 1984 1.6L Turbo and I shall show you mileage --that Scrooge would like.
I would like to see Sandy Camerons facial expression when he drives by that
filling station on Wendy Juice. --- Canola is coming to town sooner than some
people think. Mark Shepherd said that Canola was allready cheaper in some
part of UK ? eh Mark ?. Rabbits just love that Canola. I used it right out of the
fridge 50% .
Hagar-.
PS : Yes I like the term SMILAGE. will I get rid of my UV's ? NO.
