[Vwdiesel] I sure miss our old group chats

Hi Hayden.hope things are cooling down for ya in TX.Did you ever finish the Red 69 bug.  I am not sure I remember you saying you got it running and tested on long trips.mine is suffering from low oil pressure when hot, 10-15lbs is all I can get at 3,000 rpm, not 30lbs as it should be, 10lbs per 1,000 RPM
Next I will try swapping the oil pump, if that does not solve it, then I have to much slop in the main bearings, right??/

I am still here, just really busy.  I have recently purchased a 59 Euro beetle that I am starting a complete restoration on.  I am considering letting VW buy back my 2015 Jetta SE TDI and getting a diesel Colorado/Canyon.  If so, then I will be without any VW diesel products for the first time in a long time.  BTW  anyone need a Jetta trailer hitch.  I bought it right after I bought the car but it has never been installed, comes with the plug in play lighting also.  Hayden

“If and when these preachers get control of the Republican Party, and they’re sure trying to do so, it’s going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can’t and won’t compromise. I know. I’ve tried to deal with them.”  Barry Goldwater (early 1980’s)
“There are many men of principle in both parties in America, but there is no party of principle.” 
“I do not know if the people of the United States would vote for superior men if they ran for office, but there can be no doubt that such men do not run."
“I cannot help fearing that men may reach a point where they look on every new theory as a danger, every innovation as a toilsome trouble, every social advance as a first step toward revolution, and that they may absolutely refuse to move at all.”  Alexis de Tocqueville
