[Vwdiesel] Diesel Bunny Fix-it Day--Topeka KansasDavid Cook vwdieselbunny at yahoo.comMon Feb 21 18:31:44 EST 2005
Bryant and I are scheduling an informal Diesel Day at my parent's house this weekend. We're gonna get my head gasket replaced, as well as check the timing and stuff on Bryant's bunny. I've got the dial indicator gauge that is used to time the engine, as well as a set of valve adjusting shims and the cam and pump locking tools. So, if anyone is interested in coming out to Topeka and helping/learning then you are certainly invited. My parents have a grill, so maybe we could all contribute some meat and turn it into a real fun event! I cleared it with them, and the don't care if a bunch of folks come over driving old, rattly diesel VWs! ;-) If you plan on checking your valve clearances, then be sure to have a new valve cover gasket unless you've modified it to use a reuseable rubber gasket. Directions: >From Highway 75--We are north of Topeka a little ways... Go East on 62nd street (There will be signs pointing to the State Lake west, so go the opposite way as those signs). Go almost exactly two miles to Nickell Rd, it will only turn north. First Driveway on the left, the address is 6247. It is a white farmhouse. >From Highway 24--Go north on Topeka Blvd. Take that all the way up to 62nd street, and head west to Nickell Rd, I think it is about a mile. My cell # is 785-806-0254, parents # 785-246-2150 (but don't call that one until Saturday). I'll probably try to get started between 8-9 in the morning Saturday, whoever shows up whenever is cool.
