                  You're getting only 250 k's a tank!!!

                  I was getting over 800 in my MK2 and that's 120kg heavier than a MK1. You seriously need to look at your webbers or switch to fuel injection.

                      im shattered HAHA
                      Hoping today clears out, want to adjust a few things.

                      Choke is stuck on and making the mixture rich.
                      Think airfilter is stuffed
                      Put a Radio in, cause damn it sucks not having one on long trips

                      Will snap a few pics out of the driveway too LOL

                          So,

                          Loving driving around in a stock golf, fuel is amazing. 10L got me 110Kays of caining around town, and i got 120kays too 8L on highway

                          Though the clutch has been slipping alot last few days, got worse this morning. it would break loose and rev out in every gear under acceleration. Was only 3rd gear before.

                          So got the motivation to slap the 210mm heavy duty clutch in today.
                          All went pretty well, got gearbox back on. some bolts in.. sat down to have a drink and realised i had left the cover off that goes over the flywheel bolts Speaking of, what does this do?

                          Havnt finished yet, but i got box in and bolted up, all mounts loosely bolted up ready to align.






                          and the reason clutch slipped... notice crack in flywheel!



                          Daughter gave progress a thumbs up


                          EDIT, no i didnt rest car on jack, there is car ramps and blocks of wood holding the underneath... Jack was there as back up
