Thanks for the tips. could you clarify what you mean when you say "head" "orb" "cap" and "chip"? just want to be sure we are speaking the same language etc.
i have a 98 MK3 with instrument cluster and warning light issues. i was changing the fuel filter last year and did not have my mityvac handy so i ended up with excessive cranking to bleed the air out. yeah i know, dumb move but i was lazy and i did not care about this car at that time.
so here...
you are not going to get more boost without a tune.
without a tune, iq(injection quantity)is the main thing to adjust to reduce smoke. done in/with vcds.
it is quite simple actually. like howler said, remove the light access cover on the passenger side and just push the rod to the left. it will be at the top.
he said he already changed the t-stat.
it's just limiting the amount of outside air from coming in, not stoping it. it is just a towel after all.
i'm sure he will let us know how it goes in the long run though.
yeah you are right about it being negative camber. my recollector unit was not working right:p
but i am pretty sure the toe in is zero degrees, as it is front wheel drive.
somewhat normal. if i remember correctly you want the toe in to be 0 and you want the camber to be about 1.2deg positive(i think). you adjust the camber at the lower strut mount bolts.
the worry would be if the grease had dried up. if it spins good, with just a bit of resistance, it should be just fine. i would run it.
make sure the belt is not that old though.
i would test on a long steep hill just to see what it gets up to so you know what temps to expect etc. i would probably set mine at 1350, but i do pull trailers sometimes.
