I'm on the hunt for a decent diesel VW Rabbit pick up. I'm learning more than I really wanted to know on these things. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
One of the main things that I'm zero'd in on is finding a solid mechanical drive train. decent body, paint not a real deal breaker. Any help finding one is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike |

The electrical problems are VERY real, and are almost invariably the result of rust through on the windshield frame/cowl. Water drips, or even pours, onto the fusebox, which sits just under the left side of the cowl. The secondary issue is the fuel pump relay melting the fuse box. There's a remote setup for the relay, and one would guess they've nearly all been done.

The Cap'n Thats good to know, the only place I've seen any rust (minimal surface) is at the drivers widsheild cowl. No electrical issues whatsoever. What do I look for on the remote f.p. relay setup conversion? |
