[Vwdiesel] Consider Propane?

  Not really even "misted."  My test apparatus was a 5 gallon tank with 
about 8' of hose, and a needle valve in the line, at the tank.  It's a "weed 
burner" setup and I just unscrewed the hose from the handle/pipe and 
burner.  I put the end of the hose into the intake snorkel, held it with wire 

or tape and then ran the hose through an open passenger window, set the 
tank on the passenger foot area and had a friend run the valve.
  It didn't take much to make a big difference in how "light" the engine 
felt.  Not horribly much faster or more powerful but noticeably quicker.  
Too much propane and it'd knock.  Supposedly it only works on a TD. 
I tried it on the Rabbit a few days later but the tank turned out to be 
empty so my firsthand test as to whether it works on an NA was 
definitely tainted.  ;-)
