[Vwdiesel] Fueling screw

Well after dealing with all the smoke and soot buildup on the back of 
the na golf, I did some archive searching and figured I'd give it a try 
by adjusting the fueling screw just a little. I went out and gave it a 
1/4 turn out and I was amazed at the result, just a little puff of 
smoke on start up, very minor smoke at very hard acceleration that 
stops completely as soon as you lift your foot and settle to cruising 
speed. I' may take it back in 1/8th turn and see what happens, but for 
now, I'm very satisfied. Prior to turning the screw the golf would 
smoke like crazy under hard acceleration, so bad in fact, I got stopped 
on a highway on ramp by a state trooper because it was smoking so bad, 
granted there were 5 adults in the car with the a/c on, but it was bad. 
So far that I can see, that has all but stopped.
