Anyone use the Mobil-1 M1-301 extended life filter? That's what I have on there right now.

A little pricey though, can't get mann or mahle filters i...

Re: VW 1.6L Marine Engine
They do make a special end cap for the last injector, a sealed off piece of tube, is that what you used?

Re: Injector return line sizes
I ended up get 1/8" ID, 1/4 OD Tygon PVC from McMaster-Carr. I use clear for the same reason. Sure they won't last as long as the "real" stuff, but it's so inexpensive and easy to change, and makes it easy to track down bubbles.

I emailed the guy selling those, he said they won't work for the diesel engines. I found a guy on craigslist with a large collection of vw parts apparently, he is going to send me one tomorrow. <company name removed by moderator> has them new, but they are pricey, which is why I was trying to find a...

Injector return line sizes
What sizes are the injector return lines on an '81 1.6 NA? My car currently has semi-clear Tygon lines but no size markings on them. I'd like to replace them with some "Fuel and Lubricant Yellow Tygon PVC Tubing" from Mcmaster-Carr. Does anyone know what I.D. the small return lines are (in...

Lower timing cover
I need the lower timing cover for an '81 1.6 NA rabbit, and the bolts that go with it (or I could get them myself if I know what size they are). Kind of scary driving around without one.

Re: Parting out 81 diesel rabbit
I have two of the rear speaker mount things (right and left) but I don't have the speakers that mount in them. They are not cracked as far as I know. They have the tan carpet on them.
I'm interested in the window cranks, and a lower timing belt cover if you have one.
