Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

          This is why I wouldn't buy a Mk4, they're simple enough for even bears to figure out.

                Looks like the bear's diarrhorrea is contagious judging by the previous posts.

                    From vortex, but very old.

                    Carburettor Theory

                    Ever wonder?
                    (Stolen from Sport-Touring.net):

                    Basics of Motorcycle Carburetor Operation

                    The basic secret of carb function is that inside each carb are thousands of tiny gnomes; each with a small bucket. As you open the
                    throttle, more of these gnomes are allowed out of their house and into the float bowl, where they fill the buckets and climb up the carb's passages to the intake, where they empty their buckets into the air stream.


                    But, if you don't ride the bike for a while, bad things can happen.
                    Tiny bats take up residence in the chambers of the carb, and before
                    long the passages are plugged up with guano. This creates a gnome
                    traffic jam, and so not enough bucketfuls of fuel can get to the
                    engine. If it gets bad enough, the gnomes simply give up and go take a nap. The engine won't run at all at this point. Sometimes you'll hhave a single dedicated gnome still on the job, which is why the bike
                    will occasionally fire as the gnome tosses his lone bucket load down
                    the intake.


                    There has been some research into using tiny dwarves in modern carbs. The advantage is that unlike gnomes, dwarves are miners and can often re-open a clogged passage. Unfortunately, dwarves have a natural fear of earthquakes, as any miner should. In recent tests, the engine vibrations caused the dwarves to evacuate the Harley Davidson test vehicle and make a beeline for the nearest BMW dealership. Sadly, BMW's are fuel injected and so the poor dwarves met an unfortunate end in the rollers of a Bosch fuel pump.


                    Other carb problems can also occur. If the level of fuel in the float bowl rises too high, it will wipe out the poorer gnome housing in the lower parts of the carb. The more affluent gnomes build their homes in the diaphragm chamber, and so are unaffected. This is why the bike is said to be "running rich".


                    If the fuel bowl level drops, then the gnomes have to walk farther to
                    get a bucketful of fuel. This means less fuel gets to the engine.
                    Because the gnomes get quite a workout from this additional distance,
                    this condition is known as "running lean".


                    The use of the device known only as the 'choke' has finally been
                    banned by PETG (People for the Ethical Treatment of Gnomes) and
                    replaced by a new carb circuit that simply allows more gnomes to carry
                    fuel at once when the engine needs to start or warm up. In the
                    interests of decorum, I prefer not to explain how the 'choke'
                    operated. You would rather not know anyway.


                    So, that's how a carburetor works. You may wish to join us here next

                    about it."

                            So just to outline here - these are the makeshift helmets made by our Egyptian friends while they were scrapping in their current predicament again the puppet satellite administration installed by the US government three decades ago.

                            I shall guide you through these pieces of registered non-standard army kit:


                            Classic 1979 ‘Tribottle rag’ helmet - a must in any type of combat




                            A late '80s issue ‘boxhat’. The bloke next to him appears nonplussed of its effectiveness ("Hassan, take that ridiculous thing off...")




                            Renaissance period brickwear piece teamed with a black and cream scarf. Textbook Middle East riot gear




                            80’s broken bin helmet. Keeping it Old Skool... though I'm not sure that tuna sarnie he is about to lob is going to cause too much carnage?

                            I personally love the fact the dude needs to lift it up to see. He must spend the rest of his time walking into things.




                            Textbook saucepanning/lifejacket/medical mask combo. Brother takes NOBODY'S ****...




                            Umm... I literally have no idea what this is.




                            And the winner by 100 miles...

                            This bloke is going to war with 2 baguettes strapped to his ears and a croissant taped to his forehead.

                            I’d def want to be behind this guy if someone lobs a load of bricks at me.

                            Flawless victory.
