So as it turns out it wasn't me trousers up!! At least not in the way I thought. I couldn't get it running nicely after triple checking timing marks and adjusting dizzy, but no cigar. Apparently the dizzy was shorting somewhere? Didn't have a chance to pick up the car before they closed to ask them ...

Oh man that would have been a smart thing to do...
Is through the bore more assured then the flywheel mark? I tried flywheel first time with no cigar so im wondering whether to try the bore straw technique this time

Have been super busy so didn't get a chance to get back to this.. So the dizzy now moves, unfortunately it didn't sort anything.. I think I didn't have the belt tight enough between the sprockets and its a tooth out or so.. Haven't had a chance to have another go, so thats my task for tomorrow ...

So the cambelt/timing annoyance continues, my distributor is totally seized basically had the mounting nut out and the thing is stuck solid. I am beginning to feel like my quest to save money and learn some skills was a stupid idea. I've tried gentle leverage and tapping, penetrating oil, got the ...

So there was a mark but it was covered by the dust cover. Car now runs! Though I cant go take it for a test as somebody has parked in front of my drive again!!!! It does seem like the timing is slightly off, idles with a rhythmic stuttery effect, though I have no strobe its on my to order list. As I ...

So took the rocker cover off, 100% cylinder 1, looking at the fly wheel its 100% tdc As for the intermediate and the dizzy there is no marks or notches, from another post and seconded by a video they say have the rotor of the dizzy pointing towards the contact point of cylinder 1 spark plug, though ...

Hmmm i think ill need to attempt to heath robinson the viewing port for the flywheel open as my v pulley has no marks that i could see will have another look though just in case. And am i right in thinking i can take spark plugs out then use a long screwdriver or other implement to assure the no1 ...

Hi I need some help So set out to change my cambelt today, first time but have read through literally all of the forum posts about it on here and on various mk1 golf forums as well, and was sure that I could do it, famous last words... I have run across some issues.. I forgot to mark the sprocket ...

Although it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows with the day, various rummagings around the car have found that, the front passenger side jacking point has a rusted through hole to the side of it, I think this is because there is evidence of a previous break in attempt at the top of the door from ...

Successful day today! Took off the old plasticy gear linkage and replaced it with the missinglinkz a1e kit! bit of a task some bits, some skillful contortion, but with some help from a mate we got there. Currently on the 25% shift reduction setting and seems nice after a short drive with it today ...

Would have come as I am fairly local only in reading, but im in wales that weekend.

Next time there is a south east thing, I'll be on it for sure

Pretty sure this is a pointless post. However.. My mk2 has a strange rattle from somewhere under the dash at about 3000 rpm. I have poked and prodded all i can whilst the car is still in one piece to try and stop the rattle but to no avail.. Anybody had and solved this? I am thinking my only ...

Spot on mark1
Delivery time for the missinglinkz is a few weeks or so.
If it keeps popping off all the time ill do that
