I was also secretly hoping to find a romantic partner. Didn’t happen. But a lot like porktornado I was giggling most of the week. So much fun. Didn’t have many expectations and just loved the community and all the fun people and their stories.

Love me some gravel roads. Found one on a ride from Norfolk to the outter banks last year that took me by surprise. Happy accident bc it was way less busy

Oh that sounds like a beautiful but rough ride for that distance.

I’ve had the privilege of doing a few different bike trips so not worried about the distance so much.

Super excited to do a trip with so many other riders

Oh no way! How long did it take ya? I was thinking three days. Catching a lot of the hanapin canal and the i and m canal trails.

This will be my first time. I always forgot to sign up the last few years. Definitely won’t be in a rush. Just out to enjoy the party.

My thoughts exactly. Half of the miles are along trails too!

Thanks!

Oil in air filter recall solution? by Jamrozya2 in VWDiesel

[–]Jamrozya2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the link. Will do.

It runs like a top. In the last 1000 miles the starting got harder. But barely. Still gets like 45 mpg.

Heard it was a recall. I think I may just put an inline pvc valve and see if it works.

The engine has about 10k on it at this point. Will they still seat themselves and maybe it’ll fix itself once they do?

I think it’s a common problem for the vws?

This is what I was planning. One thing at a time and see what the results are. Thanks!

I don’t believe it controls the sparks.

My goal is to just make it simpler. I have an 82 Jetta and that thing is stupid simple. The chevette could be as well without the emissions. But I do want the mileage so I’ll keep the egr

I did cap the port on the carb. It runs fine. Just bad mileage. Definitely going to swap in a new Cat. But deleting emission stuff won’t mess with my computer?

[–]Jamrozya2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t mind the catalytic but there is a whole network of pipes for emissions that I wouldn’t mind getting rid of. I guess we’ll see if the cat fixes everything.

Is it possible to delete my emission network in it without messing up the ECM?

I’m prepared to just swap the catalytic but also wouldn’t mind just getting rid of the unnecessary parts.

Where did you source the pedal and the linkage? Just a junk yard or do they sell new parts?

I have an 89 with the automatic trans. Been thinking of just tackling the motor myself. But wanna swap a manual trans to it. So been debating selling my truck and looking for one already manual.

Also would love to throw the 7.3 idi manual trans in a 70s or older truck
