hmm. thats very interesting. I didnt think our elevation was significant at all. thats good to know! thanks for that.
ive got a bit of an emotional attachment to this car I guess. done a few custom things to it, and I hate change so ill probably keep dumping money into er to keep it alive forever as economically stupid as that may be.... gotta pay to play I guess! ive done 140,000km on it so far with relatively no maintenance so its time I pay my dues I must admit. fix er up and squeeze another 200,000km out of her before the next $3000 rebuild comes along.
selling it and buying someone elses lemon that has its small quirks that annoy me, as well as its own major parts also approaching the end of their life just isnt worth the stress. at least I know the maintenance and abuse (or lack of) that my current car has seen. its been good to me so I may as well be good back to it and give it some lovin, and a few thousand dollars.
now that I know about Frans and his TDI post with parts/prices I will be doing most of my shopping through him. his prices really seem too good to be true. might catch a break once in a while buying from him compared to locally. kinda mad at myself for not ordering through him initially, but time is an issue. 5 days response time and 2 weeks shipping is too long for the bind im in right now. hopefully the next part I can get from him. I feel like my fueling system is next to go.
