Re: Vince the Veggie Vdub - 83 Golf

I use the engine antifreeze to heat the entire fuel line from tank to filter, then on to the injection pump. The fuel line is inside a hose filled with antifreeze.

I use the engine antifreeze to heat the entire fuel line from tank to filter, then on to the injection pump. The fuel line is inside a hose filled with antifreeze.
