[Vwdiesel] 1.6 NA IP Timing

[brian gochnauer]

i got the kit from www.dieselvw.com , they also have all the special tools
too.
The instructions were posted on this list a few weeks back
http://www.brick-yard.co.uk/forum/topic17456&OB=DESC.html
I was going to print it off for reference when I was doing it until I
noticed, pasted into a word doc, that it was 104 pages  !!!

there is also some good info in this pdf (i'll try to attach)
