Are you starting a mk1 farm?

No my one rabbit truck is enough, one vw is capable of giving you all the problems you could ever use in life.

That said if you ever find a 75- very early77 scirocco I might want that.

I'm sick of vw's though, Mercedes for daily drivers, Porsche for weekend rippers

When I get more monies

Such a shame to see nice pistons and chamber ruined by bad valve/other part.

As for bad cam timing typically it wouldn't just take out two, it would take some out of each cylinder...

Something is funky here, that's for sure. OEM ---- is always a lot better than a lot of people give it credit for.

Not only that but you missed the most important thing here, its one INTAKE and one EXHAUST. Any cam related issues would take two of a kind.

I didn't miss a damn thing, you had already covered it, I was just adding to what you had said. On your side...

Perhaps you do need an attitude readjustment? Take it easy man :-)
