    1G AWD: Where does the scissor jack mount?

    I am trying to put my 1g awd back to stockish condition and the spare tire with the accessories have long been gone. I went to the local junkyard and picked up a a spare tire and scissor jack. However, I can not remember where the scissor jack and the accessory bag are mounted. Unsurprisingly...

    1G Overheating with scirocco radiator

    I have also been having some intermittent cranking issues lately and today the fuse block that I was using to replace the factory one for the 3 fuses on the battery melted. It had to have been a loose connection to create that much heat but the screw was still tight when I took it off. Anyway...

    1G Overheating with scirocco radiator

    I believe it is lower but I'll check again to make sure. Since I last posted I have changed the coolant to water ratio to about 20% coolant and 80% water. I pressure tested the system and the did appear to have a very slow bleed down on the needle but I couldn't find any leaks. I have considered...

    1G Overheating with scirocco radiator

    I have about a 50/50 mix of coolant to water with no additives. Currently there is no ducting to the radiator. I have considered making some ducting but since I haven't seen a lot of people daily driving with scirocco radiators I am not sure if it will work. I hadn't originally planned to daily...

    Strange yellow dash light?

    random cranking

    I think I found the problem. I could only trace the volatge drop on the starter solenoid side. I found that this connection had a bit of corrosion in it and once I repaired it the car did not seem to have a problem starting on demand. Thanks, for all the help.

    It would look something like the one found in this thread. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/253120-capacitor-leak-repairable.html But you would want to check around all three capacitor for leakage. Post some pics of it if you are not sure when you get it open.

    The only place that you might consider a check valve would be in the PVC or breather lines. So that you will not pressurizes the crankcase. Everything else should have an unobstructed line. Oh and the brake booster already has one in it.
