Re: Terc delight

Ditto- welcome kz750- (motorcycle ref?) Have you considered changing the rear diff to match the tranny? Rear diff is easy to swap- i'd be afraid of letting the "magic" out of an otherwise good transaxle by swapping front diffs. Just a thought. Good luck- and good find on the engine!

Re: WTB: TVSV valve

I'm currently in the process of coming up with a manual replacement for the TVSV involving a mercedes 3-way vacuum switch-over valve and a dash-mounted lighted rocker switch (actually i installed it in my work beater a while back-waiting for real cold weather to check it's operation.) Kind of like a...

Re: Odd coolant leak

Thanks for the part number rer233. I'll see if I can get them here. Just went to the worldpac website and the number you listed didn't work. After reading your post, i checked the W/P site again. They listed one in NJ and one in portland (maybe you can only access the local warehouses?) Anyway, i g...

Re: Odd coolant leak

Do you have the part number of the fel pro kit? I can't get any o rings here except from the dealer. They are ridiculously expensive. None of the aftermarket places can find a listing for those o rings. Just checked my supplier (world pac.) their PN is 96711-24013 with a list price of $2.70 ea. Und...

Re: Blower motor resistor

No problem- we gotta do all we can to keep these old guys running for cheap. BTW-less than 24 hours after my post they were all gone. Maybe i should get a comission from R/A??

Sounds like the alternator is on the way out (unless of course the belt is loose.)

Re: why i will use the right gauge of butt splices

Not a fan of butt splices (or any other "solderless connecters") except for emergency repairs. I solder and shrink wrap all electrical repairs (especially on high current wires.) Never had a problem. Takes longer, but like a friend said "there's never time to do it right, but always t...

Blower motor resistor

R/A has a closeout deal on blower resistors for $13.59 (3 left after i got mine.) So anybody out there whose blower works on high speed but is missing one or more of the slower speeds-here's your chance!

Re: $3,500 · 1965 Volkswagen singlecab

+1. Looks like a non-runner (spark plug hanging from a plug wire is a dead giveaway.) I particulary like the house light switch in the engine compartment- nice touch (ignition switch??)

Re: 2 stock 13" Rims needed

I assume you're looking for the stock 13" white 'steelies?' If so, how's $25 plus the ride from 21209 sound for 2 wheels and 4 center caps? Let me know, Rich. (I'm in baltimore, MD)
