hey guys, well, i took my car on the rolling road on saturday and thaey also put my new dizzy on for me, and the flat spot has now gone! However, they ...
Hi mate, I am glad the flat spot has gone. If you have a 1302s then you won't need to pass the MOT on emissions anyway! So don't worry about it. If not, what...
Hi mark, thanks for your reply, my car is a 1971 1302s, i think it was actually produced in august of 1970, but that still makes it a '71 right? so this means...
Hi mate, The law on emissions (so I believe) stands as follows: Up to 01/08/1975 there is only a visual smoke emission test to be carried out - no actual test...
Does dynamometer (dyno) work for you? Except a rolling road is one you stick the driven wheels on. A dyno usually - well here in the UK - is one you bolt the...
This would appear logical Mark and I am inclined to believe you - but I have always had to get my emissions down to get through the MOT. I wonder if the...

Hi everyone. I've just joined the group after purchasing a 1971 Beetle. I am intending to completely restore it and as I am a pretty good welder and sprayer, I...
Hi all, I'm new to the group. I'm about to buy a 1972 beetle that's been converted to the Baja. It's also had 1600 Ghia engine installed with twin Webbers, a...
... converted to the Baja. It's also had 1600 Ghia engine installed with twin Webbers, a high-pressure oil pump, lightened flywheel and a high lift cam along...
I too thought it must have the 'standard' torsion bar suspension as I thought 1302 and 1303 were notoriously bad at forming the basis of Baja bug - ie they...
