Burn-E Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 MWC going hard core. We pull engines like dentists pull teeth. It's all in a day's work. Waste deep pulling motor out now. Note, when Lee says "we" he means Art, Justus and Joe. Lee's doing commentary from the sidelines and providing the necessary beverages. Right? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snabb T5M Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Replace Joe with Stu. And MY hands are dirty too. Note, when Lee says "we" he means Art, Justus and Joe.

Burn-E Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Oh that's right, I forgot Stu and Lucas were there. Yeah, that makes sense then. Joe's probably over futzing over the brakes again on the 240. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JVC Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Hells yeah, new RECORD!! the real question is how long will it take you to diagnose and repair the problem, then get the engine back in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fischmama Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 the real question is how long will it take you to diagnose and repair the problem, then get the engine back in! Well we found one possible reason. Pretty much all of the flywheel bolts were loose and RMS was leaking. I will have to pull the pan and maybe part of the bottom end to check the bearings.

550 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 I took pictures. Too many people make for too many mistakes. I have also had some of the most engine pulling exp out of the bunch.(I assume) I don't care if I see any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snabb T5M Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 The 12 pages here led up to last year's IKEA meet. This year's meet is currently in the works, albeit slowly. Newbie here.

pyzdrowskib Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 would anyone be against small weekly meets? I have some friends with VWs who are on the VWVortex forum and they have small weekly meets just in the schaumburg area. It isnt necessarily big or sponsored or anything... Just a buncha guys that meet up somewhere and talk cars and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
